My friends are sources of great humor. Javahead hadn’t seen the new satellite imagery at Google Maps yet. I informed him of it via ICQ. His response:
[15:24] Javahead: you can always tell when someone google’s your address by the GIANT FLOATING BUBBLE above your house.

That’s what I hate about these new technologies. Sometimes they become too obtrusive.
His comment reminds me of the new Arby’s commercials. Funny though.
Hopefully that’s not his real address. I know how you are about your personal privacy and I hope he maintains that same feeling.
That’s very cool too. I used Google maps to reference a link in a PDF I designed at work yesterday as a pointer to the address of the event location. I thought it was cool that you get such a nice (design wise) view of the location you point to with links of what’s around the area.
But yes, this is getting a little scary as far as being obtrusive, but I’m certain there are worse threats out there.
That’s the address of my favorite coffee house, so I’m sure they don’t mind the additional advertisement
.
It’s not, but considering the time (and money!) I spend there, it very well could be mistaken for my permanent residence.
You’ll note, of course, that poor Java Jive appears to be located right smack dab in the middle of a relatively busy, 4-lane road. Location, location, location! Though that’s rather more accessible than the one I frequent that seems to be afflicted with a mild access problem (they’re actually located right in the middle of this, though you’ll need to zoom in).
Could this be the first coffee house with a drive through?
