Yea it was cool..but, how often are google maps updated--for real--I looked at my street in zip 32413 and 2 houses that were built 3 or 4 years ago are on empty lots??

It depends on who needs the area photographed. The USGS satellites are mostly pointed at the middle east these days. ;-)

I'm not gonna lie, this much info available online creeps me out!

They did the streets in our part of Tampa a little while back. I got a completely over-the-top change of address card from someone over the summer. Knowing their new place was likely to be a spectacle, I googled the address and found the floor plan and photos from the builder. The house was ridiculous. Then I went to Google and checked out the other houses on the street. They were one-story ranches. Obviously they tore a house (or two) down and totally overdid it. I was able to come to the conclusion that 1) they will regret it and 2) the neighbors hate them.

It made for an entertaining 20 minutes and I didn't even have to get in my car. :rotfl:

I hear ya. I've done some snooping myself. Thankfully they have our address wrong. Still creeps me out.

Dang it. Can't believe I'm on SoWal so late. But the cleaning service is coming tomorrow at 8, and all of the sheets need washing.

Oh, sheet!
