I live too far out for Google street view (or any other such as Bing.) Monday night though, I was riding behind the house and a helicopter was circling the little town near me. As I cruised down the road several times it passed directly over me at a pretty low altitude. It felt weird. First thing I thought of was the birdseye view of Google or Bing maps. Then it dawned on me, they might survey the area before building all these fracking gass wells and that is what it probably was.

I was hoping to look at Google in a few weeks and see if I could see myself as I had on a day glow yellow shirt. Google caught my wife a few years ago with the birdseye view coming down our road coming home from grocery shopping. I know she was grocery shopping because on the next pass, they caught her car sitting in the driveway pulled in backwards when you scroll down to the house which she only does when she's unloading groceries.

Google Street View caught my coworker as he passed through an intersection in his town.
