Even if it wasn't, it would be ridiculous to have such a clear picture of anyone's house by just typing a damn address.

Although just for kicks, I tried it but it doesn't seem to have that Street View feature unless it's only in the United States or something.

EDIT : Seems to be almost only for the US but found the feature.

I never even noticed that feature.  That's whats so great about Google, you are just always discovering new stuff.  Unfortunately, I can't see my house except by satellite view.

This was just recently added within the past two weeks.. I noticed first they did major streets.. Then the street leading into my neighborhood.. And I thought that was pretty cool.. Next thing you know.. EVERY neighborhood road had pictures taken of it.. I realize it's public and all but.. Common..

I just did mine.  That was trippy!  I was figuring out what time of the year they did that.  For mine, it looked to be Fall of 2007. 


So Lav.. which car is yours?

Why do you have neopets bookmarked?

EDIT: Streetview captures the shittiness of 22 so perfectly.
EDIT2: My street doesn't have streetview but all the ones around do. lol

I didn't need to save it as I already had my mass of burly angry sexually-unsatisfied black men armed with greased up lawnchairs fly from Quebec to his residence.
