GOOGLE ARE NOW BIGGER THAN GOD!

My town is finally on. I know the photo was taken in feb 2009 (not just by the snow). I was off work ill and mum shouted that there was a car outside with "an odd thing on the roof".

Can guarantee my street wont be on there.

You live in Grosvenor Square? o_o

There are US Consulates in Belfast, Cardiff and Edinburgh. It might be one of them.

I can see my car! Woo!

There's even a set of images up a back alley/road with just garages and back gates on round the corner from me.

NightSt@lk3r · 11 Mar 2010 at 00:15

Well im surprised, my village is on there, but as i expected my street is not.

Privacy campaigners complained that Street View did not muzz out all faces, like this woman near Regent Street. but the Information Commissioner found that Google removed such images quickly

So you decided to publish it unblurred in the national news...

Living in the sticks, surprised mine got added too

Tefal · 11 Mar 2010 at 00:26

judging by the state of the drive way they did my street well before the winter last year.

theNude · 11 Mar 2010 at 00:28

yay my parents village and house is on there, not my place in London though as its on a private road

peterattheboro · 11 Mar 2010 at 00:31

I'd like to live on this road when I'm rich

ah, my town is finally up there! Been waiting for them to do it for quite some time.

Nymins · 11 Mar 2010 at 00:32

Yea surprised mine is there. Seen the car ages ago, but there isn't even any satellite pictures here, so at least I have something !

Substance · 11 Mar 2010 at 00:32

My car is on the drive when looking up at the house from the bottom of the street but when the camera is directly outside the house the car is nowhere to be seen, same with my dads car in the parking bay over the road, it's there from the bottom of the street but not when the car was further up the road

Taziir · 11 Mar 2010 at 00:34

If I had seen the car while walking I would have chased it to be in as many photo's as possible

Squark · 11 Mar 2010 at 00:38
