A stunt-driving FrontBurnervian snapped this pic on the way to work this morning, while headed westbound on 635. I guess Google’s work is never done. Let’s be careful out there.

  1. I sense recursion will occur when I take a screenshot of this future Google Street View.

  4. Might not be Google. There is a huge arms race of sorts to get street level photos like Google’s “street view”. I have seen Yahoo, Microsoft and some other no-name companies doing street level photography in Dallas this spring.

    I have seen a preview of the MSN street view stuff and it is much clearer than Google. 3x or so.

  5. The more recent Google streetviews are remarkably clear. The older ones are nearly useless; can’t even tell if it’s a tavern or a dry cleaner’s.
