Coming soon to a town near you...

Last night I was passed by a Google Streetview car (apparently, this also happened to Tasha and now she’s really excited!) so look forward to browsing the streets of Leeds soon!

Streetview has been around for a while over in America and has become quite popular – check out these interesting sightings

If you follow the link to the picture her house is gone. This is a bit of a crazy situation, as people can properly use this data.

It's also good fun and fairly amusing. I too saw a google van yesterday and thought 'that's a bit wierd'!

Apparently if you see yourself in an uncompromising situation you can write to Google and be removed.

I was definitely not in an uncompromising situation. I am always well behaved and upstanding citizen.
