Yes. Why?

Good, because I didn't, summary please ?

I hadn't realised they had updated the UK and misread your post thinking you were asking why there was UK and not Ireland, slap for me.

Irish techno-geeks may have to wait yet another year for Google's much-hyped Street View initiative after the company admitted a launch in Ireland is "not imminent".

Although Google representatives spent more than a week last year driving through Dublin and filming local streets, the company confirmed to the Sunday Tribune that the images would not be seen any time soon

I love how I'm a techno-geek because I use the internet.

Yeah that was weird. No doubt written by some inebriated hack at the independant still pecking out his stories with two fingers on a rusty remmington...

Today??

Thats discouraging given that it seems to take them about a year from camera car sightings to going live online.

Did you wave?

NufcNavan · 11-05-2010 06:41PM

so any idea when it will be in place?

friendface · 12-05-2010 12:40PM

Was about to start a new thread when I found this one. Is there some legal issues regard the uploading of streetview in Ireland. Surely they have a lot of areas covered considering they started mapping over a year ago. Why has nothing been uploaded.

I became curious when I noticed that the flying orange man doesn't like crossing the border on Google maps. I suppose there was a bit of trouble the last time orange men started walking down the streets of Dublin so I can see why Google might be wary

I remember last year 9 was sitting outside school after my last exam during the leaving cert and the google car was black and it had passed?how come some people saw a red car?

Im sure they have more than one car on the go or it would take a VERY long time

Haarlz · 29-05-2010 12:31AM

i know but i thought they were all goingto be just black cars?

It doesn't make any difference what colour the car is. They are all doing the same job.

biko · 29-05-2010 11:11PM

They mostly use red Astras but I'm sure other colours are ok too.
Apparently it was black in Limerick.

I can't wait to see how Marlborough street looks. Gards and junkies everywhere :pac:

samhail · 15-06-2010 09:57PM

Just checked out maps.google.com now... seems they put in photos from loads of locations...

step in the right direction suppose

thesteve · 15-06-2010 10:01PM

Google don't put those photos up, anyone with an account on http://www.panoramio.com/ can upload photos to Google Maps

samhail · 15-06-2010 10:04PM

yeah posted up on my FB that it was a bit of a cop out since that was always available, they just linked it up with streetview

Weird.

I man if streeview is not available why would they associate all those pics with it?

A test maybe?

Streetview has some hidden beauty about it if you really have a good wee look

Saw the Google Street View Car in Castlebar, Co. Mayo today!!!

You couldn't miss it, red car covered in Google logos with a 360 camera mount . . . gave them a big smile!

Finally we'll have some updated footage of the streets in Castlebar (well maybe in about a years time).

It would be nice to get an update on the overhead sat footage too but I think we'll be a long time waiting for a break in the continuous rain we get in the west to coincide with a satellite pass.

I reckon this is years off to be honest.

Isnt there not some sort of ongoing court case in europe which is preventing google on rolling this out to more countries.
