There are no live pictures of earth anywhere on the web. The google.earth pictures are photographs taken from space over the last 5 years. The reason there are no live pictures is that it would be too expensive to place a satellite into space that just transmitted back live pictures. There must be a scientific or economic reason to launch a satellite, and beaming back live pictures is neither scientific nor economical.

Well, As a whole program to view the whole Earth, Google Earth is the best. As for Zooming in on areas, I am fond of Mapquests Aerial Views.

There are currently no programs that allow you to see live pictures of earth as to my understanding of what you want available to the public...not even google earth does that. MSN has a map service similar to google earth. But in my opinion it doesn't work as well. Its msn live maps. http://maps.live.com/

Alternative to Google Earth is 'World Wind' from NASA. It is free to use and apart from the earth, other planets like Moon, Mars etc can also be viewed.
Enjoy...
