Stephanie and I were talking and she pointed out that Google had added the “street view” feature for the city of Indianapolis; this lets you look at city streets as though you’re standing on them, and you can do a panoramic view of the houses rather than just and aerial view.

Look! There’s Our House in Google Streetview!

Great. Well, at least I can prove I did yard work this summer.
