Google Maps (not Earth) has a feature where you can right click on any point on 
the map, and select "What's Here?". That puts a large green arrow on the map. 
If you then click on the arrow it will pop up the co-ordinates (in decimal as 
well as degrees, minutes, seconds). Thought that was quite handy. And also, as 
you're placing the arrow yourself, then you're not stealing any info from the 
Google database, so I imagine you can use this information unrestricted.
