I've just noticed a new feature on Google Maps. To help with discoverability and understanding of the satellite imagery (as opposed to the basic map) they have introduced an overlay window in the top right hand corner which exposes the satellite image for that part of the map:
As you pan and scroll the map, the image changes tracking these movements.
Nice. I think it's only on the WebGL version.
