A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

This should be a Google maps feature, how cool would that be.
Doesn't Maps or Google Earth have a time-line for places now? Thought it started 4 or 5 years ago, so it's not everywhere yet.
Though I think that's just fairly recent images and such. Maybe it permits us submitting really old info/photos?
You could probably set this up on a shared map, getting people to help/contribute/not be a troll would be the challenge.
Yep, when in street view you can look at old street views. It'll be cool in 20 years when the changes will be more apparent
On Google earth pro you can also look at older versions of the satellite maps, which is also very cool
Cool!
