Fly around London using the PigeonSim
Over the years we've seen some creative ways that people have used Google Earth. From the crazy "skydiving" a few years ago, to Paul van Dinther's impressive A-tour, we've seen a lot of great ways to stretch Google Earth.
Today's is a mixture of crazy and awesome -- a simulator that uses the Xbox Kinect to allow you to pretend to be a pigeon and fly around London. It looks great!
Check out the video below to see a bit more about how it works.
