Today I was driving to another appointment, leaving my office on Raytown Rd. I was traveling South on Blue Ridge when I spied a Google camera car. We've all heard about them, you may have even seen a few pictures, but I actually saw the real McCoy.
Here it is at the corner of 63rd and Blue Ridge in Raytown, MO.
I first noticed that they were working on Kansas City when I Googled my home address and was able to view my house from the street on "street view" . I checked then and they had not mapped my office.
This is a great tool for real estate investors, they can "drive through" a neighborhood and never leave their desk. I talk to investors from all over the world, they frequently ask about the neighborhood. As we all know I am very limited in what I can say, but with this service they can view the neighborhood without ever leaving their desk.
So soon you will be able to Google 6300 Blue Ridge cut off Kansas City, MO 64133 and see my ugly mug taking a picture of this car.
For those that don't know you can read about the Google street view here. http://maps.google.com/help/maps/streetview/index.html
