geoGreeting!
Geo Greeting is a simple and fun way to send a message to your favorite geography buff learners.
Here's what it does, it spells out your message using satellite images of buildings found in the Google Maps satellite view. Simply type in a message and Geo Greeting finds the images and spells out your greeting. I have created a message that you can view at http://www.geogreeting.com/view.html?yECsxqUxoGUkxnUowoBqsxqUDomrxyvyqsoC.
Geo Greeting could be an easy way to introduce to new users the capabilities of the satellite views of Google Maps.
Another way to use Geo Greeting would be to have learners create messages then explore and research the areas from which the buildings that created their message came.
