Google Maps satellite updates - I see you!
Tags: Internet
I just got a ping from a friend who I'm meeting for lunch from Hey Where Are You (HeyWAY), an iPhone location app (and it looks like he's running late!) I pinged him back since I'm still at home and then was a little startled to realize that the latest Google Map satellite update of my home shows my truck outside with remarkable clarity. I have to admit, it was a little freaky. Now, I can date the picture as being from over a year ago based on where my truck is, where my motorcycle cover is, and where the camper is in the yard, as well as the leaves on the trees. I don't know how Google Maps is updated, but I know that picture has not been there until very recently, yet it's still pretty old. And I still feel a little creepy - I think I'll close the blinds before I head out.
