This site is pretty amazing....Any one know how often the images are updated? minutes, hours, days, weeks?

The images are 4 or 5 years old, i can tell because my neighbor doesnt even have a pool in his backyard, which he got installed 4 years ago. I think you can pay for a semi-updated/version, don't quote me though.

Varies a great deal by location. Some are very fresh and others are almost from the previous decade.

I have the paid edition of Google Earth, there is no more updating on that site than on the free site. If you want fresh photos, check out Micro$oft's new Local Live.

Interesting birds eye of a small building with parking for about 100+ cars

The newness varies. The photos of Tucson, AZ are a couple years old because they show the foothills mall still in early stages of construction.

Microsoft has no pictures of Canada. Not sure if that's a relief or not.
