Cow tip - Weaselboy

Google is using the EXACT same maps that Terrabrowser uses with some notable exceptions:

(1) Google doesn't zoom in anywhere near as close as Terrabrowser does

(2) Google doesn't display a streetmap overlay.

(3) Google distorts the picture with a false vanishing point perspective.

So no, I'd say they don't have something here.
