Google streets is working. You can see you house in Calgary now.

Where's the "couldn't care less" option?

[SanJuanWorm]

Its no different than going for a drive as far as privacy is concerned. I think it's cool. Hell my lawn was cut and my truck was washed. Twas a rare day to snap a photo.

rickr...now there is a category for you

 

they photographed ours when the leaves were out...grass was green...now I can stick my face in the screen and pretend it is still summer...

 

Some areas of the city appear to be snow covered or cold still. Must of taken a while to photograph.

I say you move the "no opinion" vote to couldn't care less, and I'm tied for the lead!!!

 

Mine is pretty recent. Taken on a Wed afternoon (Blue box is in front of house, my truck is in the driveway). Grass is nicely cut. Looks nice!

too funny. I wish I knew they were coming...

[Avalanche]

Hah...knew it would pop up. I'm sitting in the red Versa. Happened to be sitting there as the camera car drove around the cul-de-sac...

Yep...count me as happy that my grass is green, new fence is up and my gardens are in bloom. I think it's odd, yet funny, that my license plate is blurred out. I wonder how they do that....

[admin]

I think that they had to. Faces and licence plates should all be blurry... or perhaps you are hitting the sauce a bit hard tonight Lynn.

Pic of my place has snow all over.... wtf

[kipper]

puts a whole new twist to the ole "I know where you live" threat.

[zegrave]

i don't really like it, privacy is looking like a thing of the past.

I just looked for my uncle and aunt's place.. and it's a picture of the garage from the back alley. haha

LOL...I went to look at our old house and the same thing happened. They have footage of the back alley and the front is blanked out. Weird computer glitches. I was surprised they did alleys. They should of put a scanner to pick up tin foil in the windows to catch the drug houses. There is one starter home in Sundance that never cuts grass, never shovels the sidewalk yet needs a surveillance camera on the porch... Go figure..

Lake Sundance is ripe with grow ops as well.

That is not a new feature.

[Guest Sundancefisher]

That is not a new feature.

 

I found a really useful way of using this. I often remember a store I liked and where it is but sometimes not the name...hence I can't find the phone number.

 

Now I can find it on street view and see the name. It has helped me 3 times now.

Its pretty cool but there are some loop holes, i typed in a friends address and it took me to his alley way! LOL
