1263253 2012-03-05 21:38:00 Anybody else notice the updated Google Maps Street View pics? Looks like it's about 6 months to a year old, but the quality for NZ photos is now *heaps* clearer!

I know they're newer at least coz there was previously a rubbish bag out the front of my in-laws, the original photos were taken on a rubbish-day... And it's not there now :D

1263256 2012-03-05 21:55:00 Yea saw this the other day.
My sister's place is on the corner of an intersection of a main road and an entrance to a subdivision.
On the main road it has the new images and their house is there.
If you move one step down the road into the subdivision it's the old images and the house is gone! :D

1263257 2012-03-05 22:08:00 Our Land Cruiser is now on the driveway instead of the van we sold years ago, and the new fence is shown :p

We also have a chicken, so it must have been taken around June-September as we used to have them for my brother's Calf Club days.

Anyone want to put a giant digital calendar out the front of their house? :p

1263258 2012-03-05 22:36:00 Just noticed it says "November 2009" for half of them if you look at the bottom of the Street View :p Chilling_Silence (9)
1263259 2012-03-05 22:48:00 I noticed it last night whilst playing with the new tablet. The previous shot of my place showed my son's car leaving the driveway and I was in the passenger seat. The new shot must still be an old one because it shows SWMBO's car that she sold a couple of years ago. bluenose (14548)
1263260 2012-03-05 22:48:00 The house next to ours has a 4 sale sign, the girl who bought it lived there for a year then rented it as she is a Dr at the hospital. After her year 2 nurses rented it while doing there first year new grad and they left at New year so the images are at least 2 years old for here. It does indeed say 2009 which is about right gary67 (56)
1263261 2012-03-05 23:43:00 Still no photos at all in our area - Burnside, Christchurch. AvonBill (11358)
1263262 2012-03-06 04:37:00 Wow, the pics are beautiful.

Definitely a few years old, coz I've got a bunch of trees that have grown many metres since these shots were taken.
