Google Earth and Google Maps provide interactive access to satellite imagery that are often less than 3 years old.
For special events or natural disasters (e.g. Haiti earthquake) Google has made new satellite imagery available in matter of days or weeks.
If you want more up-to-date imagery then you might want to check the imagery providers directly (e.g. GeoEye, DigitalGlobe, etc.).
"Best" is subjective and depends on your needs: do you need highest resolution satellite imagery or the most recent.
Google Maps and Bing Maps are two websites that try to maintain a balance between having high resolution and up-to-date imagery.
One of the most prominent places to view satellite maps would be from 'Google Maps'. You can also download the software 'Google Earth' and take advantage of many of the features such as viewing objects in 3D, flight simulator, view the surface of the Moon or Mars, current traffic conditions and even model buildings into the maps using SketchUp.
Satellite maps are created using photographs taken from the satellite in space. J&RJ&RDetailed photographs of land are taken from a satellite in space then fed back to a computer on earth which are then edited with location text and then put online.

Google Maps provides satellite and map views in addition to Street Views. The satellite view of Google Maps uses the same backend satellite imagery database used by Google Earth.The satellite imagery are typically from the GeoEye or DigitalGlobe owned satellites, and some of the imagery are actually aerial photos from aircraft using special high resolution cameras.
Maps may be drawn to scale or not to show more or less detail as needed. Satellite images on the other hand are actual photographs of what the ground and landscape are at a particular time. Both have many uses and tools like Google Maps allow you to switch from a map/street view to a satellite view with a click of the mouse.
