Google streetview

Anyone checked it out for your area yet? I think it is just up for TO, Ottawa and Kitchener.

I just looked up our house and you can see it. Indifferent I noticed that they blurred out all the license plates. I wonder who had that job?

Re: Google streetview

  • Our new house up on the Hamilton Mountain is there, I checked it out this morning!

    Did you wave?

  • They might have captured me looking confused! lol
  • Hey Jen, I checked out your house... and saw the truck in the driveway. thank god they blurred out the plate.

    also saw ppl on the street... good thing they blurred out their faces too. I wouldn't want my kids playing the front yard the day they video my street. definitely some privacy issues.

  • I have a friend who lives in CO and her and her husband were on it when the van drove by their street. Their faces weren't blurred...it is kind of creepy.
  • totally checked out my house and my parents and FIL's!

    All plates are blurred..
    On my street they have the houses off by the numbers by over 20!
  • I saw our house.  We were even able to narrow down the day of the week and month that the pictures were done in KW.
  • My house is up. Our car wasn't there but it was scary to see that.

    July or August correct? We had our driveway done in July and our truck is parked on it so I know it is at least the end of July.
  • It's totally freaky! Our place is not up because we're in a new development, but I checked out my in-laws place and my MIL and neighbour are at the front door. At my parent's place my mom is in the driveway - so wierd and creepy!!
  • They did our house in April or May... it was on a Thursday (garbage day LOL) and it was right after I did all the planting cuz the gardens look AWESOME hahaha. I could narrow it down to the exact day if I looked at my landscaping receipts. 

    Anyways I checked my parents house in Calgary too and it's also garbage day LOL, and the garage door is open and my Mom is looking at the van (but her face was blurred out) 

  • I too checked out my parents place, my inlaws, my friend and our place...but ours has a BIG tree blocking the view of it HAHA

    The weird thing is that tree is big but high up...I wonder how high the camera was? It doesn't catch my front door at all...which isn't really a bad thing :-)

  • I'm not sure how I feel about the privacy / creepiness factor yet, but I am quite impressed by the interface. Anyway, lucky for me I live on the 21st floor, so you can't really see my 'place' from it, even though you can see the building

  • I checked our house, and our friends and families homes the other night. It's really neat, but really creepy at the same time. I could see DH's car parked out front. Thank goodness we live in a townhome, so you could only make out that our windows were open from the street since the backyards face the street.

  • I'm so glad they haven't done our neighbourhood yet. I find it super creepy.

    Like seriously, is it necessary?!
