I was just showing someone how to use Google Maps to look at their house. I haven't done this in about 10 months. Now they have Street View which allows you to look at the front of the house. You can even zoom in to look in windows. BTW, I have full window coverings. I'm impressed for the San Francisco Bay Area.

Uhhh... what rock did you just climb out from? This has been around for more than a year now, with quite a few websites devoted to nothing but showcasing the funniest and/or strangest things people have found...

I'm not chasing Google Cameras, etc. I'm just inspecting past and current properties I own or live at. I'm choosing the location, Google isn't choosing the location for me.

I found a little kid riding his bike following the car once. He was in about 20 consecutive pictures.

The day is coming where they create a Google Maps in real-time so you can zoom in and see people taking a shower, having sex, getting dressed etc. through their windows.

There's some good ones there... topless sunbathers, car on fire, a girl flashing the Google van, and a guy aiming a gun at a kid fleeing on a bicycle...
