I have been to google maps but i want something that can really zoom in close to a location. Is there any websites that can do this?

There is one call Window Live Local. It has a feature called bird eye view. It switches the view from the Satellite picture to one taken with aerial photography and you can change the angle of viewing. It's not available for all areas.

Google Earth or Google maps.
You can zoom in pretty close in most places, but some locations can't be zoomed in as close as others.

I don't know how CLOSE you want to get. You want to look into someone's living room? Google Earth gets to within a few meters in some highly populated areas, as it states on their website. Have you checked out their view of the Google HQ? The detail is amazing! Meanwhile, for better quality/detail, you'll just have to wait for better technology to come.

For Indian region Indian Space Research Organisation's Bhuvan gives detailed maps (http://milloz.com/site/index.php?q=satellite%20maps/3d/isro%20bhuvan%20vs%20google%20earth%20and%20wikimapia)

Google Earth is pretty good, though rarely updated.
It seems to update only frequently visited or known locations, and even then it fails to update cities like San Francisco! The Giants baseball stadium is still under construction according to Google Earth!

Google and Yahoo maps both have satellite and aerial imagery, with different areas covered in detail so try both.
The closest detail I've seen, though, is at http://www.globexplorer.com/
There may be others that get closer in limited areas.

Google just recently bought out a company that does sat imagery and i belive there intent is to help make google earth better and more crisp images.

Terraserver may have closser images and earth observation portal can scan anything you want for a fee. The cost is thousands of dollars. Clooser scans are not practical or classified by US Millitary. Complete sets of arial photos that are much closser than satalite are also avaiable but not for free..

Microsoft's Live Search (http://maps.live.com/) often has "closer" zoom-in data than Google, I believe because they incorporate aerial (as opposed to satellite) photography.

i don't think there's a website that shows satelite imagery and zooms in really close
