It's been on the news for the past like, two weeks. Apparently, the shots are semi-live and the people in the shots aren't aware of it. They had a shot of some guy using the bathroom on the side of the road that they've been showing on every news station.

They are not semi-live. They are as of the last time someone drove that street and snapped a picture. As was evidenced by the picture of the homeless man near Google headquarters that died last November and still shows up in Street View.
It is cool though, isn't it?

awww no fair. you all know already. I have this annoying friend who keeps forcing me to have a social life so I don't get to read as many of the blogs as I would like.
And, yes it is amazingly cool

Colbert Report... Daily Show... Local News... It was everywhere. It's a pretty big deal. Apparently, some cat-lady Googled up her house on it, saw her cat in the window, and became furious.
Unfortunately for creepy cat-lady, Google is above the law. The only big corporation that we don't really "treat like a big corporation."
'Cause it's free. ^_^
