Google Maps Streetview

in my day you could kick a ball in the street with it all hanging out, without fear of being raped by perverts online

Does any country in the world wring it's hands about streetview as much as us Brits?

Google's Street View has come under fire after a new survey shows that two-thirds of people find the images 'intrusive' and 24 per cent think it is a 'service for burglars'.

New survey shows that two-thirds of people find people walking down their street 'intrusive'...

The report was carried out by myvouchercodes.co.uk

yeah they sound reliable

Is the 3D button on Streetview an April Fools joke?

ha! don't have any 3d glasses to test whether it's actually being applied "for real"

haha it totally works

I used my Avatar 3D glasses and it didn't work.

it's just the old fashioned blue & red glasses you need, i don't know how the avatar ones work.

A "View In 3D" option has been added to Google Books as well, so surely it has to be a hoax?

I mean, an AFJ

apj or not, it still works pretty cool. some scenes work better than others there are some dodgy parts.

I'm feeling more fucked-with from the fact that my tiny hometown is now comprehensively covered on Streetview. They've gone too far.

'Horse-boy' on Google Streetview

Google Steed View

oh horse-boy when will you ever become a horse-man

this is my favorite new thing: http://web.mit.edu/~jmcmicha/www/globegenie/

Wow, I think I know what I'm doing for the rest of the afternoon.

I don't understand what it's supposed to be doing.

Okay this is kinda fun

It randomly shows you places on Streetview. Except it's not all that random, as it gets stuck in certain regions.

for me that region is the ohio valley

I keep getting stuck in North Carolina.

What I've been doing in my spare time.

Haven't had that much spare time lately.

That's great, PP. I like.

i'm visible on streetview in 2 diff. locations. the most famous i'll ever be (other than appearing in a live shot from the Gene debut album booklet).

a genie for live cctv's would be more interesting than this street view

true, cctv would be great but i'm having a lot of fun shuffling locations.

miracles are real!

Big ol bug on the lens. Or a leaf.

go down the road a bit and it stays in the same place on the screen. then turn the other way and it's still in the same place on the screen, over the land instead of the lake. obviously something someone stuck on the camera for a laugh. xpost!
