We all know Microsoft are jealous of Google's search engine. Which brings in over 2 Million daily users and over $30,000,000. A couple of years ago Google released You must login or register to view this content. which has evolved into an amazing project which now allows you to view any road in Europe at street level.

Microsoft for some reason can't create there own ideas, they just steal them. So they've made StreetView, which claims to be much better quality than Google's standard definition camera shots.

They have claimed that it will not be a worldwide project when it starts off, unlike GoogleMaps. But it will only take high definition images of Main Cites and streets in England.

It was only a couple of Months ago Google got out of a court case due to breaking 'Privacy' laws. But now Microsoft have now decided to jump on the band-wagon.

What do you guys think of this?
Does this effect the way you look at cameras?
Do you feel vulnerable knowing your house is on the internet?
Or do you see it as a good cause, so we can look back on the images in the later future?

GoogleMaps, and other applications where you can view anyones house help people if they where to, perform a robbery on a certain place.
For example, say someone wanted to know alternate entrances to my house, instead of going through the front since others will see them, they will find other ways to get into the back.
