Google Street View
19 March 2009 21:58Well, I have also found my house. And one of the houses where I grew up. And Tux's house. My parents' house seems not to be up yet...I hope it arrives soon!
It occurs to me that this could be a wonderful way to investigate really dodgy areas of east London without running a risk of being mugged. And I never need to be lost again. Meeting someone at a new restaurant? Welll, I can just look it up so I know exactly what I'm looking for! Heading into the distant wilds of Zone 3 for a specialist shop? No need to worry about walking past it 3 times - I can do all that on Google and so when I'm there in person I can pop straight in the door!
One of my friends has found himself on it, crossing a road on the way home from work. WIN!
