For those modern age stalkers that like to stay on the cutting edge of stalker tech, I introduce to you Google Street View! In another totally cool but mostly useless application, Google has eye level street views of certain areas of Google Maps. As long as the eternal object of your affection spends their days in either the New York, San Fransisco, Denver, Las Vegas, or Miami area, you have a shot at catching a glimpse of them doing something extraordinarily normal! Stalkeriffic! Of course before Street View got to even tie its shoes, backlash has begun to rain from the "Invasion of privacy" heavens. One lady, who has been so graciously named "Cat Lady", has been quite vocal about her feelings after Googling her address (very stalkeresque if you ask me) and using the Street View option, was able to see her cat chillin in her front window. OUTRAGE!!!! Not only has Google captured the life of that poor cat, but they have also caught some other people in some compromising situations. For instance, you can see a guy walking out of a Pornographic store (although his face is blurred), there is another guy apparently breaking into a San Fran apartment, another guy getting a speeding ticket,not to mention a number of people lacking appropriate clothing in Miami. As you probably already guessed, the internet was quick about gathering these images and sharing them. Enjoy your stalking!
