back to article StreetView gets the willies in Victoria

In the great tradition of pranking Google’s photographers, someone has penned a phallus on a Google StreetView camera-van in Australia. It pops up in the appropriately-named town of Long Gully, near Bendigo in Victoria, and continues through Maiden Gully (no, really). The graffito was apparently first noticed by BuzzFeed. …

    umm where?

    Are you sure it's not someone who's drawn on your monitor, no "willy" that I can see!! Maybe you've been watching to much redtube? I guess google fixed that one pretty quick... :)

      WTF?

      Slow news day...

      It's not easy to see but it's there - it's on the lower image and if you move in the direction the camera is pointing in, you'll see a green outline although thanks to the trees, you'll pretty much never see the whole image against the sky.

    Okay I see it, just...

    Ya need to squint a lot but I guess when your pranking the google street view car detail ain't important. I like the one near me where he pulls into the fuel station to fill up. http://g.co/maps/m3vu5 I kinda thought these google street view cars were powered by nuclear fusion or something, seems not. :)

      at least he was courteous

      Are the cameras on a timer or a gps for taking shots? If they're on a timer, how many pictures of the gas station does google have?

      Reminds me of the old Steven Wright joke about the camera in the kitchen.

    Well, there's nothing remotely resembling a dick that I can see

    Perhaps Google have fixed it now that you've published it. Maybe you should have posted a screenshot instead of the Flash map where Google can change things.

    Nothing to see

    Perhaps the journalist should take a Rorschach test.

    It's hard to see

    But I think its there.

    If they were to take a right at Bendigo, join the A300, pick up the Hume, they'd end up in WANGaratta.
