Yeah, right, Google is great. Look at the clarity of Grand Haven, Michigan:
http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&om=1&z=14&ll=43.060297,-86.238384&spn=0.030101,0.058537&t=k

Holland, Michigan:
http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&om=1&z=14&ll=42.791685,-86.108952&spn=0.030233,0.058537&t=k

Traverse City, Michigan:
http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&om=1&z=14&ll=44.754048,-85.600061&spn=0.029257,0.058537&t=k

Wow, I can see the features with great clarity!

I personally like what used to be called Virtual Earth:

Their images are crisper.

However, you need to look to photos taken from airplanes to get the resolution you probably want. Commercial satellite imagery is not going to be much better than about 1 ft resolution.
