Google street view

Have you noticed that Google Maps has this interesting feature called street view? Perhaps this has been around a while and I haven't really taken notice. Tonight Spencer and I were poking around looking for directions. We found some interesting items.

This reader is quite frightened because you can actually see their cat sitting on a perch in the window.

This website actually collected cool things that were found in Google street view.

Some people are concerned for child safety over Google street view.

These people even made a funny video about Google street view.

Enjoy! (but you may want to keep your curtains closed, just in case!)

So long Yahoo!

I have used MyYahoo! as my home page for a really long time. It has been great! I loved the pretty backgrounds that I could choose. I loaded my home page with all sorts of fun little widgets and gadgets and links and well, all sorts of really cool stuff.

The day I really got excited was when I began reading my first blog. Cranky Fitness. It was so cool because whenever The Crab dished out new blog material, I was right there, ready to read, because I got a cute little picture and the first line or so of what she had published. Life was good. Life got even better as I began to read more blogs and could add them to my sweet little home page. I was happy!

Then, (cue sinister music) things got a little strange. I started my own blog and placed it on my home page, but wait...that's not my latest posting. Maybe I need to refresh my page. Again. Again. Again. Again. Again. Still not my latest post. Maybe it was just my blog. Maybe I set something up wrong and it was all the fault of MY blog. Unfortunately, I realized that nobody's blog was getting updated consistently anymore.

This week I have been migrating all of my web-ly possessions over to iGoogle.

See ya Yahoo, it's been fun, but not that fun.
