Google Maps Updated
Maybe this is old news - but the satellite images on Google Maps were updated. Ron Joyce stadium / ETB are now on the map and not piles of dirt 
Roads don't appear to have been updated - one goes right through the stadium.

Sorry if this happened a while back, just noticed it now. Appears to be a carnival at centre campus as well. Everything just seems greener!

Google Street View... that's where it's at! To hell with Facebook, if you really want to get a good stalk going, rock on over to the Street View. Then you know what their house looks like... and which windows might be vulnerable...
Joking, of course... but I still love Street View!

Sweet, they have my new house on there now. But they haven't updated the streets..you have to manually find it from another landmark.
