Great Geography Game

Earth Picker is a great game using google street view. You have to figure out where in the world the street view is by finding clues. When you think you have found the right place, you mark a world map with a pin. The thing I really like is that you have to look for clues, explore new places in the world and use your thinking skills for find answers. Give it a go by clicking on this link.
