As I am no doubt the last person to point out, Google Maps has added a street level view to (a few) urban areas. It’s the first Google app (besides Picasa) that I’m aware of that requires Flash, but it’s also (as fellow Be alumnus pixelknave points out) the first Google app to feature the Be Man:

Fig. 1. The BeOS Man. Fig. 2. The Google Maps Man.

I guess it was only a matter of time, given that there are so many Be alums at Google now. I figured I’d send him home after all this time away (screenshot).

Update: The Google Maps Man now has his own instructional video.

Video: white screen of death; endlessly scrolling menus.

As you can see, my beloved Z520a’s screen is broken; probably a fatigued connector in the hinge. Apparently, this just happens to Sony-Ericsson phones. [Good timing, too: I’ve had the phone for 18 months, which is out of the 1-year warranty but still six months shy of an upgrade discount.]

I swear, I’m still here. Give me a couple of weeks.

In the meantime, Anil Dash breaks down the whole lolcats thing (2 3).

Or as I call them, when I am unafraid of being the dorkiest person on the entire internet: “meowlogisms.”
