      Google Street. I know it’s been around for a while, but it looks like the Milwaukee area was just recently added. Everyone wave to Uncle_Fun! 😆

      Just got to google.com, type in an address, then go to ‘Street View’.

      Looks like the data is from July, 2007. I think this is a cool tool to see where you can park, etc. before going to a cache.

        Very cool. I was wondering when they were going to photograph Milwaukee. I looked at my office and my parking lot and it looks like they must have been there on a weekend. They also did my street residence, but so far I haven’t seen anyone I know walking or driving in the street.

          WOW, that is awesome.

          Try this, click and drag the screen down. You can see actually see the car that is driving around taking photos.

          You can seem it’s a small vehicle with some sort of camera and gps strapped to the roof of the vehicle.

            Now, if I could only find myself out caching…
