Tesselate says google mapping cars¹ (that they're using to do the street view² on google maps³) are "about", not sure if that means Folkestone.

Just wondered if she was a Google employee, as we have the google mapping cars about now, and I guess it would be pretty tight for one to properly photograph the old high street, so maybe they are doing it manually.

They're definitely doing other parts of the world, here's a picture of one getting busted, in [San Francisco](/wiki/#san/francisco). Sure to get pulled over looking like that. Did I mention [my new google map app](http://maps.google.com/ig/add?synd=mpl&pid=mpl&moduleurl=http://www.clarkeology.com/widgets/mapplet.xml)? There are books you can buy to learn this stuff.
