So the blogosphere (wow, can’t believe I actually just used that word) has been abuzz with Google’s newStreet View component to the already excellent Google Maps. The first thing that struck me when I played around with the feature — well, actually the second thing, right after “damn, that’s cool” — was that the stalker factor on this feature was kinda high. I mean, Google has always been the best friend of the nosy and invasive, but taking pictures of someone’s apartment building? Cree-eeepy.

It seems I’m not the only one to feel this way.
