Hmm. Interesting!

While sitting cross-legged on my bed and with my laptop, I just cruised my neighborhood. Capitol Hill in Seattle.   I went up to Volunteer Park, then tootled on down to Seattle Central Community College, then back again, checking out the Jack-in-the-Box parking lot on my way back.

Maybe I don't know how to do it, but the closest view I was able to get didn't show much detail. For example, the top of the building I live in:   straight down, the only angle offered. All I could see of the building itself was the roof. The image of the roof was about the size of a postage stamp.

Just for the helluvit, I checked Bob (Deckman) Nelson's house in Everett. Found it fairly easily, having driven there quite a number of times. There was a vehicle parked where I think Bob usually parks his truck, but I couldn't see enough detail to tell if it was his truck or some other vehicle.

No way could I even pick out people, much less recognize faces or read cars' license plates.

Also, are these images current? If so, how often are they updated?
