« Addicted to Google Streetview... »

Little did I know, last summer Google captured my street, my old street, even the street i grew up on. What’s the big deal? I live in a subdivision north of Toronto, I used to live in a subdivision in Aurora, another one in Brampton, and i grew up on a street that didn’t have street numbers, it had rural roots. You know: R.R. #3? :-)

R.R. #3Somehow, Google managed to capture all the little people…. and wasn’t just limited to large urban centres. I dig that.They had a plan. A vision.

I have visions….I browse neighbourhoods, I pair Streetview with MLS, and I look forward to the day when Google is able to easily marry Streetview with geo-location advertising with their new patent. This new app is going to be the sexiest mobile addition. Ever.

I’m going to go and check out some more streetscapes…… :-D

StreetView is totally awesome, and real estate is a great use for it since most listings don't show you a thing about the neighborhood. (Um, neighbourhood.) The company I work for built and manages http://www.century21.ca and includes StreetView on listings where it's available. And it goes full-screen so you can zoom up and down the bock in style. Check it out.
