This is mainly for guys that live in the uk, dunno if guys in the USA and other places will be able to do this.
Unlike Google Earth (Or Google Maps), that allow you to have a top down satellite view of your city, etc, Windows Live Maps allows you to have a side on view in all directions. They even had imagery of my house, and my city isn't that well known (Well, apart from the SAS Base)
Give it a try (http://maps.live.com/), when its loaded, make sure "2D" is checked, then on the right of the small box there are two icons inline with each other. If you are zoomed in enough and it isnt grey, click the bottom one. If you are still having trouble, click here to view my city (You can search for yours). If you scroll a little to the left and up you can see the Hereford United football ground..
