new google maps street views
just a fun fyi -- it looks like with the various google maps street view updates pushed yesterday (there are a ton of canadian cities available now on street view), the street view images for some brooklyn neighborhoods have been completely updated.
cobble hill had a particularly bad street view originally. the brightness on the images was so high you could barely make out any detail. it's now revamped along with other neighborhoods brooklyn heights, fort greene, park slope, greenpoint, and williamsburg, and prospect heights.
i don't work for google or anything and i'm not advertising them -- i'm just a frequent user of street view as a tool for virtual tourism, even within the borough :)
check it out http://maps.google.com/?q=loc:+Carlton+Avenue+at+Bergen+Brooklyn+NY+US&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Bergen+St+&ll=40.686008,-73.996418&spn=0.010885,0.01929&z=16&layer=c&cbll=40.686096,-73.996358&panoid=JrdEfTP5uoPrW3gmXlFQtw&cbp=12,177.45,,0,-15.72

Thanks for the heads up. The new picture of my new place is much nicer than the old picture of my new place.

Great. Now you can see my torn window screens. I'm happy the interior lights were off at the time.
