Did you know why Google Earth opens where it does? Because if you zoom in fully, you'll arrive at an apartment building in Lawrence, Kansas. It's a secret tribute to Google VP Brian McClendon, who grew up in that building.

google earth...

was driving in the neighborhood the other day and saw a funny looking car on the road coming toward me. turns out it was a toyota prius painted all google earth-y with a giant apparatus on the roof. I believe the big thing on the roof (looked like a little dalek) was the structure to hold the cameras. t'was cool, but I wasn't quick enough to snap a picture of it.
