Visual Satellite Alignment Calculator

A cool app I came across today shows visually, using Google Maps, on where to point your satellite dish. To get it to work you need to enter your address and tell it which, from the many, of the satellites you are trying to point towards. Once the details are entered you click go and a blue line on the map shows which direction your satellite dish should be pointing to get the correct signal. Not only a map is available though, you can also use the satellite imagery on Google maps so you can see an image of the street you are on and which way you should be looking at with the dish.

I do not use satellite my self, so cannot verify the accuracy. However, the owner claims amazing accuracy and has now included the elevation and skew calculations at the bottom of the map.
