Giant Desert Maxim Pinup of Eva Longoria.

By Alex in Pictures, Travel on Apr 6, 2006 at 7:55 pm

From the website:

Maxim magazine celebrated its 100th issue by building a 75-by-110-foot billboard featuring its cover image of Eva Longoria, billed as "TV’s Sexiest Earthling." The billboard doesn’t tower over a highway, however. It’s flat on the ground so that it can be seen from a satellite and posted on Google Earth.

Neat stuff from the NeatoShop:

How can one see that on Google Earth? Whenever I go to Google earth the satellite photos I see are more than two years old; that is, it shows my new construction, year-and-ahalf old house as an empty lot.

Unless maxim built that 2 years ago, will anyone see it?

It’s a clever marketing ploy, though – I’ve seen it aired on tv news, so they’re obviously getting tv airtime and exposure worth millions for peanuts.

You can see it, and its not a hoax, its just not nearly as big as you think it is! Or you have totally the wrong idea of scale!!
Go to primm just south of last vegas. Now zoom in so that the town fills most of your view. The lighter coloured orange square of terrain directly north-east of primm (bordering the buildings at the north) contains the magazine cover. Its roughly in the middle.. Happy hunting…
