Incidentally, am I the only one....

Who uses Google Street View to try and catch a glimpse of myself? And is it wrong of me to admit to this?

I never had, but I just tried it. Well, actually, I looked at my neighborhood; realized the pictures were taken in early afternoon last fall, probably on a weekend; and "walked" Gareth and Scout's usual afternoon route.

Does Google Street View typically show people? Because none were visible in my "walk" (a couple of cars, but no people); and I came to one place where for literally about 50 feet there was no image and I was wondering if maybe there'd been a person on the sidewalk in that space.

Incidentally, the building I work at was built in a park and Google Maps still shows the park there, but Google Street View shows the building.

They show people, but they blur the faces of anybody close enough to see. If you know who the people are, though, you can still work out who they are.

I do! But no luck.

My car is visible in the shot of my street, though!

I checked our house to make sure there were no naked children peering from my windows. There weren't.
