Today in Google Street View car sightings on 2nd Avenue



Spotted near East Fourth Street by Derek Berg.

Now everyone please be on your best behavior so that the car doesn't inadvertently capture you pulling down your pants or making gestures that might be construed as the middle finger. Anyway, that's so 2007!

  1. Why not an unmarked nondescript vehicle? What is the point of attracting attention. Google, probably just a bunch of fuckwit look-at-me narcissists just like the rest.

  3. Google maps are a fairly useful function and one of the things I would name a benefit of the internothing. Its just an opportunity for them to brand themselves. They should have their co-management on their as well e.g., CIA.

  4. @11:59 Kinda hard to be non-descript when you have a 6 foot tall 360 degree camera on your roof. But fuck it, let's find a way to complain.

  5. Hahaha! Yeah I would say they need to label their car so people know what they are doing. And people love seeing the google car! People get pumped to be in a google street shot. Its fun! Or its also good to know in case you dont wanna be caught on the web so you can quickly jump out of the shot.

  6. Yeah, it should be an unmarked, nondescript vehicle...then that would give people a chance to complain about it being an unmarked, nondescript vehicle. Good gracious, exhausting.

    Grieve, I'm imagining in the future buying "EV Grieve" t-shirts from your EV Grieve store and people wearing them while the Google car drives around the neighborhood...think of all of the free advertisement...you could make MILLIONS on top of the millions you already have accumulated!

  9. People are excited to be caught on camera by this telescreen, yet they complain about the Glass. Talk about doublethink.

    They should have this roving around during Santacon to capture that insanity.

  10. They caught my boyfriend and I on 12th and A, looking towards the old MHC Flea Market, looking something like Lewis and Clark. I hope he saved a copy because it was a great capture. Even if I do say so myself.
