Windows Live Local Playtime
I wasn't impressed with Google Earth. Basically because it was nothing new and I had to download stuff.
But I am enchanted with Windows Live Local. Specifically the Birds Eye view.
Unfortunately very very little of the Earth is covered by the Birds Eye view at the moment, but if you go somewhere like New York and zoom in and turn on the Birds Eye view and zoom in some more and twiddle with the compass orientation device thingy and stick a pin in the map and make some notes and email a friend....well it is quite entertaining in a its-nearly-christmas-im-still-at-work-what-shall-I-do kind of way.
