“Like a video game and a search engine rolled into one.”

Google Earth is a satellite imagery-based mapping product that allows one to look at, and interact with, the Earth from their computer.  One can choose any place and zoom into it to see a street level view, as if there in person.  There are many different layers to the program that shows the projects and features that make up Google Earth.  The images are in 3D and you can use it to create interactive projects incorporating different types of multimedia.  Google Earth is a rich educational resource, with access to a wide variety of tools, to utilize in this generations' classrooms to enrich the learning experience of Digital Natives.
