Phoenix, Arizona. USA


I have been living here in phoenix for almost 4 years now. Just thought to write & let people know how nice & fun being here in phoenix.

Phoenix is the capital city of the United States Of Arizona. People from other states do think, it is terrible place to live during summer. Well i agree, just have to tolerate the hottest days.

The temperature reaches or exceeds 100 °F (38 °C) on an average of 89 days during the year, including most days from early June through early September.

After that oh boy, the most beautiful place to live. We don't get snow, but the weather gets cold, where you still be able to do outdoor activities.

I do hear people saying about Sky Harbor Airport, during winter season Phoenix airport gets real busy , since people from all across the country travel to phoenix to relax. Try to stay away from snow & very cold weather. By the way , we only have 2 seasons through out the year - Summer & Winter.



Google Earth Goes Beyond the Sky

Here is the interesting thing about google maps!

Google is extending the scope of its highly successful Google Earth satellite mapping technology into space with the launch of Google Sky. Google Sky, which is embedded into newest version of Google Earth. Sky provides Google Earth users a facility to explore the stars and galaxies sans the use of a telescope.

Google Sky delivers a zoomed in imagery of constellations into a user’s dekstop. With Sky’s technology, users can observe the movements of planets, stars and even watch a supernova explosion.

To use Google Sky, Google Earth users must update their installations with the newest version of Google Earth. From the new installation, a SKy button on the toolbar at the top of the screen opens up a new whole dimension of the space. With a click of the mouse after selecting a specific location, users will witness the wonders of the space above the earth.

And to make it more even useful, Google Sky is also available in 13 other languages.
