Oh well! I guess if I want to spy on other people I'll just have to download the goods.

Hi Anne,

It could also mean that they have not fully mapped your street yet with the street view cameras. They actually mount them on a truck and drive around neighborhoods. Must have taken them forever. The guys at google said the founder wanted someone to be able to see the route when mapping directions so they could actually see landmarks.

A friend of mine had a fire in his house. The exterior was pretty destroyed. They went to Google maps street view and downloaded the view and were able to reconstruct it.

I believe that if you are a business that you can block out the google maps feature if you want.
