Satellite:
Google Maps uses the same satellite data as Google Earth™. Satellite images are not real-
time. Google Earth acquires the best imagery available, most of which is approximately one to three
years old.
Buzz:
Displays information and photos of a location or place which you or your friends have posted.
With Google Buzz you can share a tip, make a recommendation, post a photo, or find out what other
people are talking about on a particular location, such as an upcoming traffic jam or a concert — all
while viewing a map.
When you have joined Latitude, you can view your friends' locations as a layer on the map.

For information, see "Google Latitude" in this chapter.
