Google Street View
There are times that I wish I had a small digital camera. Sure, Amy has all of her gear, but we rarely carry around $8k+ worth of gear everywhere we go. Today, I wish we had at least had a camera phone or something!
We were driving to a Thai place to meet her mom and sister for lunch. We pull up behind a car with some strange device attached to the top. We wonder if it’s a Google car. First observation was the California license plate. Sounds good, right?
Next, we see that the thing on top apparently appears to have 6 or 8 little black “holes” all around it… turning out to be lenses of some sort… taking video, of some sort.
A left turn at a red-light reveals a Google car magnet on the side! IT WAS a Google Street View car! So, we’re going to periodically check the route we took to see if we make it on the camera! You’ll be updated if that case prevails! :)
Next order of business: Buy a Canon G10.
