Be Excellent To Each Other

I went down my old road as far as it would go, but it stops short of where I used to live. To be fair my house fell into the sea, so the Streetview car driving to my actual house would have lead to at least one person's untimely death off of a cliff, but as there is a slight bend in the road I can't see how much further that which used to be my road has now eroded.

I feel a bit sad at that.

I've just had a "walk" around the village I grew up in. Christ, that was depressing.

Just went to my house. The pics are OLD, I've still got my old white garage door. No car (pics seem to be in the morning as there's schoolkids walking past) in sight, alas.

I've just sat outside myp and Ange's house, virtually touching myself. The mypmobile is still present. Other beexer's houses less interesting.

I like that despite driving right past my front gate you need to be about a mile away to see the actual building on google maps

I can tell the day that they went past my cousin's house as there are balloons and a banner on the door, celebrating his 1st birthday, which they had put up for his birthday party that day.

Your task was somewhat easier than mine, then.

The arcade we were talking about in the revo thread which (last time i was there) had a working sit down Space Harrier

Can anyone help me with this? How do I get a URL of a place I'm looking at on street view.. I'll explain..

Say for example, I start by typing in my home postcode and looking at my house. I then zoom about (while still in street view) to my friends house just up the road. I can't go straight to his as I don't know his post code etc..

If I wanted to send him a link that went straight to his house, how do I do it? The link that's in the address bar is still my house that I originally searched for using my post code.

click link in the blue bar, directly above the viewport and to the right

Ahhh... The one that clearly says link! How on earth did I miss that?!?

Thanks!

You see that massively tall hedge on the left-hand side of our house? That's now the same height as the other one now. That was cut down about a year ago.

Christ. Call Torchwood.

Gaywood's view of pliers.

My Dad has seen the two lads before and apparently they use the car windows as mirrors to see how they are looking. I'm not convinced.

Has someone been carrying out one of the experiments on Look Around You?

No, I do this all the time.

My mum and dad are in their car outside their house.

The house I grew up in. Moo Ma and Moo Pa are home.

Wow , distance from there to where i live = 2 miles

I'm on there now ! Well, not me but the houses I stay at

I was here on the day they came too. My window was open

Really? where are you? Isn't Chinny a Southampton boy too?

Are the culprits the two little scamps stood on the green exchange box a bit further down the road who disappear in the next frame?

Chinney is closer to Romsey , i'm the other side of the Tesco roundabout - up the hill from the Jolly Sailor pub that Chinny keeps posting pictures of :-)

(I should point out I've lived in this area for the last 10 years , prior to that I lived just outside Glasgow)

Ah, Bursledon then? I worked on the tills at Tesco there between 16-19 during school and college years. The Jolly Sailor is a fine boozer, actually more of a stuck up yaughtie cunt establishment but same could be said of Ocean Village.

Lads I'm going to be in Sudaaaaaaampton in a few weeks if you fancy a coffee or something? I won't be stopping long 'cos I'll be lugging stuff back (the cabinets for my desk) but I'm up for meeting at a coffee place or something

Find a Kovacs.... go on!!

Awesome

If you keep going from here then you eventually fall into a white hole:

No white hole for me - after going through a couple of hedges and ending up back where I started I ended up stuck at a lamppost.

That's the one.

"So what is it?"

It's ........... a lamppost that's crossed over from a parallel universe?

How cute is that

Streetview seems to be broken for me in Opera now. It loads the maps fine, and squeezes them into the corner, but instead of a photoview, I get a large black area instead.

Have they changed the way it is served, or is it Opera, or is it me?

THIS STILL DOESN'T EXPLAIN HOW I CAN WALK AROUND THE STREETS ON THE INTERNET?!1

I don't know if this has been updated again or I just missed it last time streetview was updated, but it is now in 3D (or rather is viewable in 3D if you have 3D glasses)

Google art project using street view tools to allow people to view museums.

When are they going to release the code that allows us to upload our own photos for virtual tours of our own houses, parks, local areas etc?

Get the people to do the work that Google Car can't.

My stalker used Street View to look up my house the other day and ask which one was mine and then ask if the houses with the signs up were for sale. I felt I had to point out that Street View photos aren't exactly current as he's not the brightest of sparks.

Now you can see the Amazon basin in street view.

And MaliA!

Not MaliA, phone would be in front of MaliA, taking pictue of MaliA

I am the most fetch thing, wherever I go.

Edit: last selfie on my camera roll was on sat.

Brown shoes with black trousers?

West Yorkshire camoflage.

Stunning! Though hype creeps in:

"Now anyone can experience the beauty and diversity of the Amazon."

when "see" would have summed it up nicely without over-claiming (perhaps with 'some of' appended, if I were actually in charge).
