google streetveiw - how to
Llanigraham:
Stretchy,
sorry but come into the real world. This "system" was out of date the day after it was introduced. The photos of my street were taken at least 6 months ago, so things have changed since then. It gives NO ONE the chance to see what you are doing now. If they wanted to do that they would be taking photos of you every 12 minutes as a CIA spy satellite flew over the UK.
How often do you think Google are going to update this thing? I bet it won't be even looked at for the next 5 years, by which time it will have been superceeded by something else, probably much more imminent and immediate.
If you don't like what Google show of you and yours then get in touch with them with the relevant reference and ask them to blank it out. They have said they will do this if possible.
Personally we are going to use the nice free advertising we can get for the shop; it even comes with a nice free map to find us!!
EDIT: friend on another Forum has found his car in 3 different places, so how can he be traced then!!

Yes, but it doesn't bother me. No-one can trace me from it, and no-one can "case" the house any better than sitting in a car outside, so c'est la vie. As I said we're using it as an advert if anyone wants to know where we are.

I don't see an alarm box, old windows on front so maybe same on back... looks like bit of easy access from the rear..... I gonna steal your bird seed.
I could scout out lots of places from the comfort of my arm chair looking for back water ram raid targets that don't have store front protection, before I had to drive around looking for these places and planing my escape route, checking where the police station is and so on.
