It's interesting when media draws attention to itself - like this:
Teletubbies - Laa Laa shows a film on her tummy screen
So I felt I had to share this experience of looking up a local hotel in Google Street View:
Swivel to the left and you'll see a restaurant. There's snow and ice everywhere and it looks pretty bleak.
Now try stepping forward into the car park...
It's the Google Streetview team setting up their equipment and planning their routes!
Much as I enjoy my job, it must be fun to work for Google. It has a certain mystique - almost like brain surgery...
Anyway, back to Årsta and if we move forward out of the car park and we see that the Google Streetview team have gone, but they've left behind a gift to the people of Årsta...
Google Street View has a history function - click on the date at the top left hand corner of a Street View page to reveal a timeline. Think what fun people will have with this function in a couple of hundred years!
In my lifetime, I look forward to doing this:
Dear students & colleagues, thank you for a great Michaelmas Term and look forward to seeing you on Monday 11th January for the commencement of Hilary Term in our English courses at Hagabergs folkhögskola.
