Google Maps is giving Greater Chicago Street View, Very Cool

Hey Gang,

Was just looking up an address in the north burbs and see that Google Maps is giving us "Street View" a very cool program. http://maps.google.com/maps?ie=UTF8&...4,3.702393&z=8 Check it out. Will also help in designing event routes too. Google Rules!

Very cool hopefully this comes to more and more of the US

Just watch out if you see the Google van driving about or you will forever be captured!

Sweet, I see my house. Unfortuntely I dont park in the front, would have if I knew the cameras were out. I do see my dad's van though.

Edit: Wait, found my car. Checked my friends house since I"m always there and it so happens that I was there. Check it out =)
