funny because when you look at min you see our boys pool with the blow up ring on top. We haven't had that up in almost 2-3 years!

I'm so GLAD it's not in real time!!!!!!
Is nobody else concerned about the security issues it poses???

I find it hard to think of a better surveillance tool for creeps & stalkers!

I'd rather the creeps and stalkers use Google Maps than their own cameras, where they can get much closer :)

I do agree, I'm glad it's not kept THAT current, but in Google Maps, my house (and the back half of my subdivision) doesn't even exist, and it's 2 years old!

I can just imagine that Google maps will become updated more and more often, to the point where you can see the people walking around on the screen. This will be the time when we should get REALLY worried!

But currently, I like google maps. We completely changed our backyard 2 years ago, and it still shows the old one. :P
