You can also right-click the map and choose Show on Google Maps to see Google's satellite images.

Harry, the degree of overlapping names you experience depends on which layers you have on the map. By adjusting my Major Biblical Sites layer, I was able to eliminate the overlapping names you see in my screenshots with a single click. Another option would be to shift-click the names in an existing layer that you want to keep, and then choose Convert to Custom Layer from the Site pop-up menu. This will create a special layer containing only the sites you selected.

I'll cover these tips in more detail in future posts.

But how about updating to 3D views with Satellite images?
