We've created an Earth curvature calculator over at http://earthcurvature.com. It's easy to use, open source, and 100% accurate.

It is using a cosine function, not Pythagoras, and is more accurate than the 8 times distance in miles squared formula, which is only accurate for short distances.

Includes tips on how to use Google Maps to measure the distance you are viewing.

Enjoy and share!
