Google Street View

Mar 19, 2009 15:33

It turns out that the only photo in which number 24, Greenford Avenue would be clearly visible... is also the photo in which a bus is sitting at the stop between it and the camera.

So our house is not on Street View in any meaningful sense. This should please certain privacy-mad residents.

If it wasn't for that serendipitous bus, people could OH NOES see the front of your house! On the internet! Instead of having to actually come to your house or drive past themselves!

Now, if only your privacy measures would extract the eyes of passers-by, to prevent them from EVER seeing your house...

Wah wah wah, we are Ian and Alban.

I don't give a damn whether Google believes in me or not, I just find the bus amusing.

Also, ghostly and/or mechanical hands springing from amongst the weeds in the front garden to pluck the eyes of passer-by would be deeply pleasing.

What about buses with ghostly and/or mechanicals hands springing from underneath to pluck the eyes of passers-by?

Oxford Street would be much more entertaining, that's for sure.
