Google street view - how much is too much?

Now everyone and his grand-uncle has a new time-wasting tool. Google street view - where you can peek through your neighbor’s bedroom window from the safe haven of your own bedroom. Just make sure the curtains are drawn and pray that the roving eye is not passing by right then. I can just see all the voyeurs putting away their telescopes and investing in high resolution monitors. Well, at least it’s not real time. Not yet.

You forget exhibitionists who would be more than happy to let it all out when the roving eye passes by. I wonder if there are people at Google specifically employed to censor (photoshop) these images.
For fun, check out the street view from the middle of the Golden Gate Bridge here.
A9 had this feature 5-6 years ago but it wasn’t a 360-degree view like this one. You could just see the left and the right sides of the road. I wonder if they still have it.
As heard on ‘Wait, wait don’t tell me” - check out the guy picking his nose on 181 W San Carlos St, San Jose, CA.
For the really lazy, this feature might have some fringe benefits.
And now… the creme de la creme.

Most of them are from SF. Aren’t you proud?
