Big Brother - Google Edition

Played till late the ancient classic game - SimTower. Earning money and meet the requirements on population and special facilities. But I was like having a bug from 3 stars to 4 stars: VIP came once but failed my star upgrade. It is compulsory to have him granting a thumb up but he hasn't returned ever. I left the game running overnight and nothing happened. The balance accumulates rapidly like Trump. I and my younger brother are wondering when will the figure touching the boundary of the label field. :)

Just played new feature of Google Map - Street View. You can input a address. Then click on 'street view' and see the real picture of such location! Wonderful! (AFAIK, it's currently available in US, Australia, and some European countries.)

I have witnessed a weird truck which with many cameras like eyes of flies passing my street. It should be how they let us even rotate the view of pictures just like turning our heads. A new era of Virtual Travel should be coming soon.

P.S. I have virtual travelled to Sydney Opera House, Canberra Parliament House at the moment. :)
