indeed – i saw that sneaky character pass by me on purcells cove rd by the dingle. my first thought was to stop and follow it immediately – it could have been my one and only chance to be “that guy” who is always riding the back of every google earth halifax photo, waving, mooning, and possibly making gang hand signals – etched in internet history forever…until they do it again. I turned around, but blast! google car had disappeared, and I was hungry for lunch.
I also saw the Google Street view car – and being obsessed with all things google – I followed it, and taped the experience – it’s in a blog post at http://dogkisser.blogspot.com/2009/04/toda… – and also uploaded on You tube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E93LF3LBy9A
