Google Maps Launches Street View Kansas City Style

Tuesday February 12, 2008
If you haven't already heard, Kansas City is the latest city to be launched into Google maps Street View this week and covers parts of the metro and Lawrence. If you've got a stalkerish side, just plug in someone's address and it will give you a street view (and cool 360) of their house. It's no wonder Google has been highly criticized for privacy concerns related to its Street View application.

I must admit it's fun to fiddle with, and I've actually enjoyed seeing green grass and trees with non-brown leaves on them when *roaming* the streets of KC. I particularly got a kick out of this trash truck taking a right on Wornall from Ward Parkway.
