Bing maps - birds eye view

[torsie24]

Not sure if you guys ever use it, but the birds eye view feature on Bing maps is SO great!

It gives you a little bit of disney on grey UK days.

It's also handy for planning if you want to make a certain room request etc!

Google maps is good, drag the yellow man down to the street to get street level pics. Our house is on it now.

Google street maps is good also if your staying off site or want to 'virtually' walk round Universal and Seaworld!!

I use a combination of both the Bing Birds-Eye views and the Google Street Level views.

They've got google street view inside DLRP now. Really good.

Can see my house on Bing but not street view as we're in a private road.

Been using Bing maps for years, formerly 'Live Maps', great for looking at villas or hotels.

Our car is down the drive, reg number is visible, I thought they were supposed to blank them out.

My car is outside my house, as well as my dads, and both have been blurred out! I haven't seen any not blurred out to be honest!

Boyfriend has been looking up all the Google Street View "funnies" recently, there's a few good ones!

Have you tried moving one frame away from your car and then looking back at it? Often the reg no is only blurred out if you are looking directly at it.

(I love the fact that the facial recognition has blurred out a poster for Kung Fu panda at our local McDonalds!!)
