Google Sightseeing takes you on tour of the world as seen from satellite, using the free Google Earth program, or Google Maps in your web browser. Each weekday your guides James and Alex present new weird and wonderful sights as suggested by readers.
Here at Google Sightseeing we get a lot of people asking us stuff, so we’ve finally put together a Frequently Asked Questions page. There you can learn how to send us maps, visit a specific latitude and longitude, and even who we are, amongst lots of other useful stuff.
We’ll be adding to the FAQ page over time, so feedback is welcome. But for the moment, we hope you find it useful 
This form supports simple HTML, but URLs will be automatically linked.
Link to specific places with a Google Maps link, or with a latitude and longitude written like this:
lat/lng:55.9494,-3.2000
If you've found something that you think should be posted in its own entry then use the suggestion form!

The “spn=” portion of the maps url is the zoom level. The way it works is quite simple.
“0.008272,0.008401�
The first number (0.008272) represents the latitude change from the top of the viewable part of google map image to the bottom part. The second number (0.008401) is the longitude change from the left hand side of frame to the right hand side.
Depending on browser size and resolution, the numbers will be different, but generally not enough to make a significant difference.
How do I see the FAQ?
Ha just kidding, i’ll go look at it now.
