Via Karen Lilley, I just found about a new virtual group called The Working Group. It's to share experiences and challenges in driving change in large organizations in fostering new technologies. It's hosted via the open social network Ning. Oracle Corporations's Paul Pedrazzi founded the group and the first guest will be Oracle Chief Privacy Council Peter Lefkowitz.

I will probably attend the first meeting. It looks aimed at enterprise level so I hope big extension has someone there. (Eli Sagor sent the link around and he is hoping to be there.)

Google has just added a new button to it's map system. It's called Street View and it's comprised of photographs taken from the street. These photos were taken on just about every street in the Twin Cities (including some suburbs).

Here's a photo of my house.

My house is directly behind the center tree and has red doors. You can click the arrows to make your way north or south down the street.

Local blogger Aaron Landry has a good post about the new street view with some great links to explore.

Cody Hanson (who works at the U) caught the Google photo car cruising around in September.

Let me know what you think in the comments.
