Why a "reluctant wizard"? It is common for my co-workers to affectionately call me a "wizard" when I have fixed some kind of technical problem. I always try to be modest about any kind of supposed powers used in solving anything, but I am stuck with the appellation in any case. It seemed like a unique and apt description of myself for this blog.

CIL 2009 Day 1 - Searching Google Earth
Great session showing a lot of the cooler things that you can do with Google Earth nowadays. I was particularly impressed with the Rumsey Historical Maps collection which allows you to take historical maps of cities and overlay them right on top of the current satellite image. This session provided a good idea of what kind of thing is available for Google Earth and how to find it.
