Apparently tomorrow is the date that in the UK, Google Street View goes all out, and releases all the imagery they've taken of our little Island.

I never saw the car go around my area, but heard it had been seen during the Summer, so I'll be having a look to see if our little house is on show ... will you??

Pretty sure my road won't be on it, but it'll be interesting to look to see who is.

My house is on there. :¬) Judging by the photos they were taken in mid-July last year.

EDIT: haha, I went back to check if I could see my cat near my house and I did! He's sitting on the pavement watching the Google car going by.

The house is on there :/

There is a stranger stood by my car though. I think we were visited by the meter reader :p

Having a bit of a nosey around myself and seeing if I can recognise anyone. It's all happening on the Yate Street View ;)

Google missed me!
I live down a single track road and they missed my end of it - is that good or bad?

Just been reading some of the comments on the Daily Mail link cjh provided - I think 'LOL' is the term to use :¬)


EDIT: Video from Google on Smart Navigation for Street View

Navigate faster, closer and without bounds within Street View. Simply double-click to go wherever you like, including zooming in on building facades.

We're there after all, I wasn't sure if they'd bother with us - wish I had a nicer house now, and had cut the grass ... oh well!!

OMG! They've done my road and as an added bonus, my step mum and baby sister is standing outside as well.

Technology is (fudgetacularly) Awesome!
