…when you see the Street View car you run out of your house waving your arms and hollerin’, “I’m gonna get me on the Google!”
I had almost forgotten about this red moment from last summer when I spotted the Googlemobile in my old neighborhood. When I saw Street View up on someone’s screen yesterday it reminded me to check, and there I was, dorkily immortalized. I started jumping and saying, “Look at me Maw – I’m famous! Whooooeeee!”
I’m not the only one. My friend Ken turned me onto the presence of galleries and entire sites devoted to wacky Street View sightings. Here are few interesting ones:

So that is what you do when I am flying, stalk the google car…
That’s hysterical, I love your wave, it seals the geek.
excellent!
I like the fact that in the subsequent street view photo, you’re just standing there with your arms at your sides, forlorn.
