Wanted (on Google maps): Yes, that car!
Yes, after seeing the clip above, the only thing I’m waiting for is an actual online video game in which a person can go to Google maps (or some version of them), pick out a car and drive it (virtually) in a city just like this great video from Honest Directors.
Such a video game might actually exist. But you know, I’m a bit old school. I might be out of the loop.
Ah, yes: Google maps. You can do much with them these days. I actually still have paper maps of China, if you can believe that.
In fact, the whole online world has created a cavalcade (if you will) of online information that can inundate and wash over someone or something rather quickly.
A minor point: TechCrunch is certainly a leader in online news and blogging, especially with that AT&T news. But, um, the image used with this post is somewhat dated. I like the idea and understand it. I also like the old no matter what form it takes.
But the uniforms and equipment are much more modern. There’s also a huge push for more modern buildings – in some areas and in some cases, that has created, well, some discussions.
You know: Out with the old. In with the new. Or something like that.
I gotta run. And if I could merge reality with the imagined – or the layers and ideas between those two realms – I’d do so in a car which zooms down the street on Google maps.
Since I don’t get back to China as often as I’d like, I plan to watch construction, as projects develop, with the help of, yes, Google maps.
As a side note, I like color, too, especially the lucky color of red. And fun is good, as are serious topics.
