Pretty insane (new?) feature in which you can essentially walk around select U.S. cities with a full 360 degree view. Doubtless not as cool if you don't live in NY, LA, Chicago, etc. But as a Philly resident, I can confirm this is pretty bananas.

My car is in two places simultaneously. I guess their camera-car came by my place when I was home, and my friend's place when I was there.
I'm a little disappointed by the low resolution. I can't even read the sign at the site of my old favorite restaurant, to see if it's changed. Of course it might be a little creepy if you could zoom into peoples windows...

Gathering the imagery for Street View requires quite a bit of driving; as such, we take safety very seriously. Unfortunately, accidents do happen -- as some people have noticed, one of our Street View cars hit a deer while driving on a rural road in upstate New York. Due to several user requests using the "Report a concern" tool, these images are no longer available in Street View.

I'm pissed off at streetview. I managed to get in it when the car drove near my workplace last summer. They updated the photo sometime last fall. This thread had prompted me to go back and check it out, but it had already been overwritten by another pass they did in October.
HOWEVER, the streetview of my house hasn't been updated since 2013. I've had the siding replaced since then and would prefer to see an updated result. Another house on my street also had major renovations done and the house next door was completely bulldozed and rebuilt.
I had never heard of the time travel function before. It's available on my residential street, but not in the part of downtown DC where I work.

So briefly off-topic, this shirt makes no sense.
https://i.imgur.com/FK4k65W.jpg
1.) Why a new shirt say it's an old shirt? If it was bought when the old person was still a virgin, shouldn't it have said "this is a new shirt?"
2.) What if s/he was still a virgin, then what difference would the shirt's age be?
3.) Do they make shirts that say "I watch Quantum Leap (but this is an old shirt)"?
4.) OK, so "I watch Quantum Leap" probably = "I'm a virgin", but you see where I'm going with this.
― pplains, Sunday, 21 July 2019 01:48 (four years ago) link
I think the implication is that you were a virgin when you bought the shirt but might not still be.

Maybe when they added Mary Lou Williams Ln. (and cut off 10th Street from the rest of 10th Street), they realized MLW needed a sidewalk as well. So they just laid one out until it met the 9th Street sidewalk.

Just up the road is We Are Our Mountains, a monument that looks like a Pink Floyd album cover:https://goo.gl/maps/Cx9SnVTrEjTbAQha6
According to Wikipedia it was the centre of controversy during the Eurovision Song Contest in 2009 because the Armenian contestant used an image of it as a stage backdrop even though it's technically on Azerbaijani territory.
I'm sure the people of Ilxor are familiar with the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and regularly discuss it during dinner parties. I too have always been aware of it, ever since I read about it on Wikipedia a few minutes ago.
I'm going to try and drop it into casual conversation in a way that suggests I have been aware of the conflict forever. If all of you agree to be quiet no-one need ever know that my entire persona is built on lies.
Also, it's not really Street View, but I visited Shenzhen a couple of weeks ago, and Google's map of the border area is wrong. There's a large blank spot at the border crossing the Shenzhen's roads are broken:https://i.imgur.com/N3Bqfoi.jpg
Apparently it's a quirk of how different countries implement the GPS coordinate system - China uses a different system to the rest of the world, including Hong Kong, so although Google's satellite images are correct the roads at the border area overlap and go wrong.
When I went I used OSMAnd on my mobile phone, which was accurate, but according to Wikipedia it has been illegal since 2002 for entities other than the Chinese government to publish "significant geographic information" on China so I wonder if I was breaking the law. Merely using OSMAnd with my phone's location service turned on isn't technically publishing, but I wouldn't have fancied trying to argue with a Chinese policeperson. For the record I used OSMAnd to search for fast food->McDonalds but in the end I went to KFC and a Vanguard supermarket, where I was mesmerised by a bag of Tesco boiled sweets.

I had no idea there's a solar system view on Google Maps, but anyway there is and you can blast through a cheesy hyperspace effect to wander round the planets and pretend you're some kind of post-human AI.

You’ll only be able to use the space feature—and experience the hyperspace tunneling—on desktop versions of Chrome, but it’s easy to find and use:Go to Google Maps.Click the “Satellite view” button at the lower-left of the screen.Click the super-tiny “Global view” button at the top of the navigation controls in your browser’s lower-right corner.Using either the “-” key, your mouse wheel, or the Google Maps zoom controls, zoom out until you’re in the planetary view of Earth.Select one of the various planets and moons from the list on the left, and you’ll blast through hyperspace to your new destination. Eligible destinations include Mars (to visit Dr. Manhattan), Europa (to recreate the journey of that 2013 sci-fi film), and the International Space Station (to say hello to everyone currently zooming around our planet).

Enjoyed this one from Komsomolsk-on-Amur that didn't quite make the cut for Guess the City

Had to check some old addresses a while before Xmas so wound up going down the rabbithole with streetmaps. INteresting to see the change in places over time. Cos they use photos over a 10 year or higher span of time. So I can move through the streetmaps world and see a number of buildings and things in this area not being there. The local LIDL disappears if you move through the area, so does the KFC . Assume this must be happening in most areas.Also noticed that the street changes that ahppened around my mother's place to prevent people speeding through backstreets come and go depending on which way you approach the street. Think it is possible taht you can press advance in a couple of places p0articularly on wider streets. & they will take you forward into the view from either one year or a very different one.Presumably at some point if they are allowed to continue updating and people's fears of surveillance don't block things there will be a point when they do keep things on a standardised era basis. THough presumably it will only make economic sense to update areas taht have actually physically changed the road layout.BUt like semi trippy to see a road suddenly jump 9 years as you advance down it. Or see yourself jumped to a spot a couple fo roads away as the system has a gap in its photo record.

It looks like Pringles are really popular in Kabul!
