Yeah, I've tried to run it last month but it seems that the server is refusing new loggers.. google had this comment somewhere on a forum saying that they're updating new stuffs for the program and never let it up again since then... dunno..

This is the most rediculously incredible thing I have seen. I was able to find my old childhood house and see how the neighborhood has changed. This is seriously cool!!!!

I checked it out a while back. I got sort of scared and looking up in the sky and starting whaving and crap. I had to have theorpy for months to get over the paranola of being watched. Then I found out it was just pictures, so I'm okay with it now. :)

This is very cool. I was able to see a picture detailed enough to make out my car in front of my office! Thanks for the link!

No, they are def not realtime pictures. I looked at some areas in my neighborhood and it looks like the photos are about a year old. I'm sure that it will only be a matter of time before they are realtime though.

It depends on the area, some of the pictures were taken over two years ago.
