But it's an interesting concept.

It's like my wife. She keeps asking me "is your internet working, my computer is locked up again."

I go to check it out and she has a bagillion tabs open in her browser, 5 programs running the the background and she can't remember when she restarted the last time. LOL.

what exactly is it? i cant look at it cuz at work we have internet explorer

Feyd · 08-31-2010, 11:01 AM

it's what I would call a semi-interactive music video.

You type in your address and it overlays some elements over your google street view images.

Nothing earth shattering, but interesting I think.

SpacE82 · 08-31-2010, 11:03 AM

oh....cool.....sounds like it can wait till i get home haha

Holy popup invasion.

Maestro · 08-31-2010, 12:22 PM

really cool idea, but no street view for my area and it got scary with all the pop up, it was like visiting those porno sites, you worried that it going to install something on your PC.

I had a friend from college who was from Salem, IL.

Feyd · 08-31-2010, 04:37 PM

Oh yeah?

What was their name? In a town of 7500, you tend to know everyone.
