Seattle has been invaded...

I guess now it'll be easier to window shop the neighborhood.

I noticed on Zillow today I can look into my front door.

Just saw this yesterday. Pretty amusing, maybe a bit scary. It would seem that it might make it really easy for, say, car thieves to use it (at least while the data appears to be relatively new).

Redmond too (at least where I live)! And the street-view data is much more recent than their satellite photos.

Now, in about 2-3 years from now when M$ decides to finally put their (likely inferior) version of this online (and inexplicably has 96% of the street-view market share a couple of years after that, if history is any guide), you'll be able to see me standing on my front porch! I watched the Microsoft camera car drive through our cul-de-sac this spring (no I wasn't giving any finger gestures ).

I saw this yesterday too, and based on the cars parked outside my house, I could tell the photo was taken between June & September this year (I have roommates moving in and out all the time). I did notice that car license plates were blurred out, how nice of them.

My area was taken in the first 2 weeks of June.

Had I known about this, I would have posted signs on my front yard.
