sandramcd Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 For those of you who, like me, spend hours trawling domain and realestate for properties in Oz, have you discovered Street View on Goole maps? What a fantastic tool to give you a clearer picture of a property, your prospective neighbours and the rest of the street! I have already 'walked' the length and breadth of Newcastle and have been able to rule out some areas that we thought had looked ok on Google Earth. Give it a go, who needs sleep? :SLEEP: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kali02 Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I think it's ace!! I've been using it to 'walk' the route from rentals to the train station to see if my hubby can cope with it on a daily basis and also to see how close the houses are to the main road!!! Shame it doesn't cover all those out of the way streets I want to live on or in fact work in the UK yet. Would be helpful if you were driving somewhere and needed some landmarks...'oh, there's that big tree... there's the pub....' etc Although, would be funny once it got out of date!

Guest tahe49 Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I saw this and think it is just fab - did you read an article about a road in Melbourne where they caught a drunk guy on camera, it is so funny....
