19 December 2003
Some time after December 13, 2003, when Cryptome last downloaded satellite images from Mapquest.com, the site's image offering has been removed. Now only maps are available. It is not clear if this removal is temporary or permanent.
Mapquest has been a primary source of images in the Eyeball series.
It is possible that only Cryptome is blocked. If anyone can still get satellite images from Mapquest please send a note to jya@pipeline.com
The British version of Mapquest, MapInfo.com continues to offer aerial images. And black and white images of the US are available from http://terraserver.homeadvisor.msn.com/
