Google have been at Aerial satellite pictures for a while now, but the top down views are already a little old hat. Although now Windows Live Maps have been flying all over northern England huddled in a small aircraft with high definition cameras and clipboards, taking multiple diagonal-in (birds eye) views of every second of their voyage.
What you get is four views of every area which has been snapped, so on their website you can rotate around high quality pictures of any one area. All you need is Internet Explorer or Firefox on a Windows machine. Use the controls on the left to rotate and switch between arial and birds eye views.
Brilliant!
