[Sami4u]

Hi,

If Google can help you find hookers. Can someone tell me how this program works to find celebs out and about.

What google program? Is this?

Looks to me just like Street View.
They've just browsed to some prossy-ridden road and captured a few screenshots.

Edit: Erm... actually I'm talking bollocks. It's only part Street View.

[Zap]

Yeah. It looks like Google Street View.
It's just pictures, taken by a car, of certain cities throughout the world so that you can see what the area looks like before going there.
These are snapshots in a specific moment and they don't change.
If you look up those addresses today, you'll see the same photos.

Nice.

Themz look like the look but don't touch type to me. lol

No. It's part of Google Maps.

When you look up an address (In a city that has already been photographed), you'll see a little orange man on the controls (zoom, left, right, etc) for the map. Drag that little orange man onto a street in the map and you'll see that street from the ground level (in photos). It only works for cities that have been done, though. More are being added.

Here's a link for you to play with...

city hall - Google Maps (http://maps.google.ca/maps?hl=en&source=hp&q=city+hall&ie=UTF8&radius=4.53&sll=43.613957,-79.65517&sspn=0.072457,0.181103&rq=1&ev=p&hq=city+hall&hnear=&ll=43.588302,-79.641326&spn=0,359.818897&z=13&layer=c&cbll=43.588205,-79.641438&panoid=8crxaF2Hb5tz3LailXv1tA&cbp=12,315,,0,5)

You can double click some things in the picture to go there, zoom in or out, click on arrows on the roads to move in that direction, use the arrows at the top of the zoom scale (to the upper left) to pan around and change the direction of your view.

[Zap]

If you drag the little orange man (bottom right of photo) to other areas of the map, you will see other streets.

[Atom]

Yes, I've used that several times. In the pic of my place you can see the shadow of the camera vehicle on the road.

[Zap]

In the pic of my place, my sister in law was on the front porch, having a cigarette.
She's now famous! LOL!

[Atom]

lol

My neighbor's car is the only celeb in mine, lol.

It does have limited resolution though, that is, you can only zoom in so close, it's pretty close though, I was surprised when I first used it.

[Zap]

We're close enough to the street that you can see her full face.
You could identify her if Google hadn't purposely blurred her face out.

[Atom]

That's the first I've heard of face blurring, it makes sense though, I think they would be violating some privacy law or the like if they didn't.

[Atom]

Looks to me like there are identifiable faces in the OP link though, so I don't know what's up with that.

[Atom]

Particularly the tenth, fourteenth and last pic.

[Atom]

Actually I've just discovered that the face of the girl on the left in the tenth one isn't discernible, I just brought it into PS and brightened/zoomed it up.

[Atom]

In the last pic it appears that the entire pic is blurry and not specifically the face.

I don't know, could be that that girl is really that ugly, too, I suppose that is a possibility. lol

[Zap]

We lost Sami.

Do you think she went looking for more hookers?

[Atom]

Hard to say. I wonder why she wants to find hookers.

[Sami4u]

Hi,


We lost Sami.

Do you think she went looking for more hookers?

No I did not LOL


Hard to say. I wonder why she wants to find hookers.

No, I want to find celebrities :sqlaugh:

Thanks for the info on this Hrs of searching I can see. But I have address of celeb homes. This might make a neat story.

Can I embed this to my site some how like a youtube video?

I am on Las Vegas Blvd S Now. :sqbiggrin:

[Atom]

(...)No, I want to find celebrities :sqlaugh: (...)

Oh, right.. celebrities, sorry. lol

[Sami4u]

Hi,

I did that story the other day. He must just like the bad boy image to much.

Temper temper he has.

Sami

[Atom]

I haven't read any dope on him except for a 911 call story I read yesterday. Maybe he drinks or something.

[Atom]

Ok why do I get the feeling we should be discussing world hunger or something.
lol

[tsdesigns]

[pctec]

I saw most of them on episodes of Cops...

[ewomack]
