Page dedicated to the Loop and the Snoop, for many years of FUN ;-)
Fun Stuff
Some sites *I* find interesting or entertaining.
I hope you might enjoy some too. :-)
Those you have already visited recently show as grey links , while others show as white.
GroupBoard page
- Up to 5 people can DRAW freehand (or Play Live GAMES!) together here!
GuestMap page
- Shows site visitors on World Map. Make YOUR mark :-)
Internet Traffic Report - shows density and fluctuations in global internet
load over the past 7 days.
Earth View - FASCINATING ! See the earth from space,
as it is this very moment. Very flexible.

Aerial picture (or map) of Dunedin - this takes a bit of finding, but you can eventually see YOUR house and area from the air, with many options including zoom in or out.
(1) Click the link;
(2) Enter your street address, then 'Search';
(3) Click on the address, which now shows as a link under 'Search Results';
(4) As it will say, 'pick map type and click globe';
(5) Voila, your house ! - Now you can pan, zoom, etc using the controls in top left.

Real satellite pics, of ANY part of U.S.A.
Sorry, the original site that could zoom in to actual house level appears no longer available (well, 'free' version anyway) - so THIS is as close as I can get you.
[The example is Yakima, WA, near Vicki's]

date format.

Marko Kavcic (a.k.a. Flying Dog Fish). Well worth a visit if you like computer
GAMES, or even just a superb example of how good a personal website can be, or to
check out a Slovenian sense of humor!
