Well, it's confirmed. Google Street is a little creepy! But useful nonetheless. Do you use Google Maps? I do, quite frequently. I love the satellite view and often check it out for clients. It helps show where on the street a home is located and often gives an idea of what it backs onto.
Google Street has come to Kitchener Waterloo! You can now head to Google maps and drag the little yellow man to the area on the street you'd like to view and voila! You instantly (well, almost instantly!) have the view as if you were standing in front of the houses! Very cool!
Here's a link to a youtube video explaining Google Street. Have fun exploring!

ReplyDeleteNeat, though.
