New Orleans Gets Birds Eye View
New Orleans is now covered by Google Maps' oblique satellite views. I'm sure there must be more cities that have been recently added but New Orleans is the only one I've found so far.
This Google Map shows the cities around the world that Google have aerial views for (New Orleans has yet to be added). I've updated my Aerial View Mapto include aerial imagery of the Louisiana Superdome and Jackson Square in New Orleans.
I've also updated the Bird's Eye View with the new imagery. This map allows you to compare Bing Maps' Bird's Eye View side by side with Google Maps' aerial view.

So you have this crush on the guy / girl of your dreams but you can never conjure up the courage to ask them out.
What do you do?
Well, you could try You Were Cute, a new Google Map application that hopes to help you with your missed connections. You can add a message to the Crush Map at any location simply be completing a short form.
Hopefully the object of your crush will then find your message on the map, reciprocate in kind and, well, the rest is really up to you.
I do love this Google Map. It is such a simple idea brilliantly executed, with just the right note of poignancy.
