There are no privacy issues with Google Street View, a Maps-based project that offers 360-degree panoramic views of various streets in cities around the US, according to Google Australia's head of engineering.
The only way to transform the Web into the desktop platform of the future is to fully embrace bleeding edge features in browser software, the Sydney-based creator of Google Maps says.
Close-up photos of Australian homes, businesses and famous landmarks in cities, towns and remote areas are now available on Google Maps Australia, absolutely free.
It appears that despite the massive amount of hype surrounding Google, the company is not immune from the bad marketing video plague that has troubled the best of corporate giants.
At the Google developer day in Sydney last week, Google Australia's head of engineering Lars Rasmussen denied that privacy was an issue when it came to Google Street View because, he said, the images are all taken in "public areas".
