Google Street View camera car tagged with GPS sensor, stalked around Berlin

Posted by on Saturday, 6 February, 2010

The story here is that someone secretly affixed a GPS tracker on a Google Street View camera car and you can follow the car’s progress using Google Maps while it’s photographing the streets of Berlin. Sort of ironic, isn’t? But either the car seems to be stopped or Google caught wind of the stalkers because I haven’t seen any progress the last few minutes. Or maybe they’re eating.

Adam Cohn has recontextualized 80s hip hop into Web 2.0, which is a one-way ticket to either hell or heaven, I can’t decide which.

For those of you who don’t know the song:

It’s too bad that Taco Bell isn’t there any more, but we’ve got Taco Gringos and Rancho Bravo now, so no worries.
