Friday Fun with Google Maps

Holy Bat Pools Batman

It seems Batman has been travelling the globe. Gizmodo recently found this large bat signal on Google Maps,



And IO9 has found Batman's Japanese Batcave in Okinawa.



Gawker Finds God

Not to be outdone by Gizmodo and I09, Gawker has discovered God floating above a lake in Quarten, Switzerland on Google Maps Street View.

Street View Driver Risks Imprisonment

In Ireland the Google Street View driver has bravely risked imprisonment by ignoring this no photography sign.

  1. I'm glad Batman has been found - or at least his cave. Can these gizmos find Elvis Presley?!

  2. It was Chris Broadfoot (http://twitter.com/broady) that created the reflective map sample. Chris is a new member of the Geo Developer Relations team - expect to see more cool demos from him!
