You can see the backyard fence and the patio behind the house What looks like an empty lot to the north is actually my yard too. It looks like this map predates the rosebeds though.
First of all, I am totally driving over to Gud's house for a beer now that I know the address. Second, I think the satellite shots of San Francisco have higher magnification or they flew closer or something. Because I can see my laundromat, the McDonald's next to Amoeba etc.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
The thing is, I wonder how old the satellite maps are. I wonder because the satellite picture of my building downtown has the old name on it. Like, 6 months ago old name.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

The CNN article mentioned the maps were about a year old.

Those satellite maps are wicked cool, except my house is apparently located at the top of my actual block.
Also, you people are making me very nervous with all the real address postings.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why more rain?
It's so cute when NYers complain about the rain.
I can see the courtyard in the middle of my 20 unit building. Google loves me.
Now to see if it loves my workplace.

It's no doubt going to vary based on what is available. Some places probably have better coverage than others. For my neighborhood, it is under 1 year old based on construction, but not in the past 3 months. For the family farm? Uh...probably over 5 years since you don't see the new house. But that's out in the boonies of Minnesota.

Our wings are not tired.
The available zoom varies on the addresses I checked. Mine was fairly close up and recent. Before last year's hurricanes though from the amount of trees in my hood. The pointer is off on mine. [link]
