The guilt part is that the other place<\/a> has been taking up all my blogging, and OTF has suffered. So here’s a quick update, stimulated by yesterday’s gadget acquisition<\/a>. I was fiddling around in Google Maps<\/a>, and there — lo and behold — it appears that Google’s Street View is already available for Ram Paddock Road.
