This is creepy AND cool. my stoop is there, I was expecting to see myself on the goog map walking out to check the paper in my boxers but they must have come when we were out. Neighbor's car is gone so I think they were at work which means the truck cam probably came through between 7:30 am and 4:00 pm. scary the info I can come up with based on that? it looks like the usual dusting of trash was cleaned up though so that at least is good-would not want any stalkers to think my wife and I are slobs.

QuoteWatch Google Maps; Watch the First Coast



To celebrate its one-year anniversary, Google Maps has added Jacksonville and the surrounding areas to the cities that are included in its "Street View" feature.

In what might be the gas-saving move of the summer, you can take in the full panoramic views of scenic Florida A1A while sitting at your computer.

The First Coast has been added to Google's Street View, a map service that allows one to virtually drive through neighborhoods at street level. Much of the area has been included, as far north as Big Talbot Island and south to Anastasia Island. Jacksonville, Springfield, the Beaches, St. Augustine, Orange Park, Middleburg and northwest St. Johns Country are some of the included communities.

In a boat at sea one of the men began to bore a hole in the bottom of the boat. On being remonstrating with, he answered, "I am only boring under my own seat." "Yes," said his companions, "but when the sea rushes in we shall all be drowned with you."

I used to think their satellite view was cool. Street view is amazing...and a little addicting. I spent a long time going through old neighborhoods and looking up old jobs, schools, etc.

I have found my vehicle in my parking spot at work from both satellite and street view... :o

Lol. Nice. Things like Street View are one of the many reasons I refuse to believe in little gray men. ;)
