Did you know that you can type your phone number into Google and it will bring up your name, address and a map link? With the map link you can also select the street view. I tried it with Chris' mom's number and taa-daa! There's all her info.

Creepy! Google does have the option of removing the info. I'm glad my number didn't show up when I tried this.

Both my home and my cell only told me that I live in Toronto, which anyone could figure out from the area code, so I'm not so worried.

It didn't bring up my number either, just the name of my town. Thank goodness!

What's really creepy is that when we upgraded to the latest version of Google Earth, they've got this street view thing...well you can freaking see my car in the driveway and I believe you can freaking see my plates! It's scary.

Yep. I'll have to take a screen capture when I post again.

I couldn't find me there, either, but maybe you need to type it in a certain format -- I just used the numbers and spaces between the area code and the telephone number.
