Google has a new feature, "Street Maps." You can now click on most any city, address, and street maps, and view what is going on in some one's back yard. Or any old drug deal going on in the street. Like here. Take a look
Here's how it works. Go to http://www.maps.google.com/. Click on "Street View." A bunch of cameras pop up at many locations around the US. Click on a camera. When the blue outlined streets appear, move the guy to the street you want to view. Or type in an address.
Between viewing addresses on the street and the fact that the FBI is eavesdropping on you even when your cell phone is turned off, well, they've got us pretty well covered, don't they? My only consolation is that Google does not have any street views available in Georgia. Yet.

TRY ZOOMING ALL THE WAY IN ON THE WEATHER.COM INTERACTIVE MAP. i CAN SEE THE TOP OF MY HOUSE AND WHETHER MY TRUCK IS IN THE DRIVEWAY.
MY SISTER WORKS FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT AND THEY CAN LOOK AT TRAFFIC CAMERAS. WITH A THREE MINUTE DELAY - SHE TOLD ME WHEN i CROSSED 400 AT DAWSONVILLE.
SCARY ISN'T IT.
yikes! I had noodled with google earth but like weather.com, the pics are from the top. This is views at street level, from 5 or 6 feet above ground looking thru your own eyes. With all these webcams and satellite pics and stuff just proliferating, it is pretty scary to me.
