One investigator recently asked me “Can you tell me what a house looked like 5 years ago”? My answer to that is try out Google Street View first. Did you know that you can turn the clock back on Street View to see all images in Google’s database? It’s really simple:
- just click the clock icon underneath the street address in the top-left corner.
- slide the pointer backwards and forwards
Most urbanized locations have at least 2 different street view locations in the USA and Canada, and much more available in California. But do check it out!
