A number of years ago, I attended a workshop at Cleveland Public Library to learn how to use
Yahoo Map Mixer's overlay feature to show the growth of a town/village/city over a period of years by overlaying maps.
The bad news is that I don't think it is available any longer. I searched for the program and found a couple of blog postings from 2007 touting the ease of use to set up, but they don't seem to lead to the program.

Here is one example that I found created for Manchester, England that shows what it is supposed to do:

Google Earth does have something available in their developer section but the process is not very straightforward for the occasional user. Does anyone have any suggestions?
