Keyhole
Keyhole is a digital mapping service. The Keyhole application lets you type in an address and "fly" to it from space down to street level. Very cool effect compared to static aerial images sites such as Microsoft TerraServer.
Keyhole relies on satellite imagery which they claim ranges from 18 to 24 months old. The Keyhole client is Windows only for now and their business model is as a subscription service. You can download a 7 day evaluation copy. I see occasional display glitches in the client but otherwise the effect is really amazing. Note: Google acquired Keyhole in October. (Via Metafilter)
