Geek Chic

As I get sicker and sicker (I'm gonna be feverish tonight, I just know it), I had a thought which is actually two stray thoughts that tripped over each other in a drunken stupor:

There should be a Google Azeroth (similar to Google Earth). Each World of Warcraft server would automatically take a snapshot of the Azeroth landscape once a day/week/month. Then you could pick the server you were interested in and zoom in on the landscape to see you are your buds fighting the good fight in World of Warcraft.

Tell me that wouldn't be cool. Tell me I rock in a geeky kinda way. You know you want to.

Your Geek Fu is strong.

I mean, they already have Google Moon and Google Mars. They should do fictional worlds, too.

There is a Google Azeroth someone made, but it doesn't show battles. You can toggle overlays of all the resources though.

I don't remember the URL. I think it was mentioned on Digg or Slashdot though. One sec, and I'll check...

... found it!
