Google Earth, need addresses for everyone

I'm collecting addresses from as many members as possible. I can make your address anonymous incase you're hiding from somebody . I figure this would be great for locating local members without having to ask for directions.
I would host the most recent addresses and have it quick linked on the main page if that's okay with Justin and Tim. Google Earth is by far the coolest software to come out this year. You can any place in the world and get directions easily with turn by turn overlaid onto the map. It's hard to explain so just go and look at http://earth.google.com .
If you would e-mail me at g-mail your address and tell me anonymous or not I'll start putting together the database. I've already got all 3 of the drag strips pinpointed for quick directions from anywhere... it's really cool. Much better than google and yahoo maps. I'll even post the "hot spots" for cruises and gatherings.

I have the software, but haven't had time to play with it yet. I think the idea behind it is really cool, and because it's from I'm sure it will work waaay better than other mapping software out there.

I've got a bunch already but I need street numbers. Trust me, this service will be worth it once enough people have commited to it. I might know where you live, but even if I do I could still use your full street address so people can find you based on the number... or have it on hand for shipping.
I'd like to set it up so that people can formulate their own driving directions to meets. A picture is worth a 1000 words and in this case, probably more.

I used Google Earth to get to the Livingston car show yesterday. I didn't have to write down the directions because of the visuals you get. Great program.

Well it's been pretty weak guys. Only got 3 so far. I've got others but again, I haven't had permission from them to post their address so they're listed as anonymous. Here's what it looks like so far;

Well I guess nobody's interested. Any good reasons why or are you all just being lazy?

I can put you in a different address. Like your local township municipality building or a local landmark that doesn't give away your exact address.
We need more addy's to make this work. The purpose will be to have the addy's in a database that you download from the main site so you can use your free version of Google Earth. If you still haven't tried it out, you're doing your brain a disservice.

If you haven't downloaded this yet, DO IT!

For starters, you will never use mapquest again. You can get a visual turn by turn tour of the route you will be taking to get to your destination.
