totally awesome!

Go to maps.google.com.
Enter your address (only U.S. addresses so far, from what I can tell)
When the map comes up, click the "Street View" link that displays underneath the small photo. (If there's no photo or link, they must not have gotten your area yet - try a different address in a different part of town or the country).

It brings up a 360 degree street-level photographic view of the location. And you can click the white arrows to move forward and back along the streets. Like in a VR game, but of the real world!

I'm not positive. The pile of rubble seems smaller so August 2007, I'd guess. Not sure beyond that. We didn't notice. For a long time, I thought the person in black was the landlord's son, but then I eventually realized it was big ole me.
