Another Google Hoax? http://www.tonyblews.co.uk/2010/04/streetview-in-3d-another-google-hoax/ http://www.tonyblews.co.uk/2010/04/streetview-in-3d-another-google-hoax/#comments Thu, 01 Apr 2010 03:41:19 +0000 Tony http://www.tonyblews.co.uk/?p=695 The time, as I type this, is 04:33 BST.

Click for bigger

You can, of course, go and look on Google Maps.

I don’t have any 3D glasses to hand to check to see what the scene looks like through them, but it would be cool and not just an April Fool prank.

Of course Google have been known to release real things on April 1st, so i’ll not say any more on the matter until tomorrow. Or probably th 3rd, just to be safe.
