Google and Microsoft both have plans to fly air planes over Australia on Australia Day (this Friday January 26th) to take high resolution photos. If I see any planes flying over I’ll have to make a note of my location and throw up a sign or giant arrow. With the news of this being broadcast I am curious to see how many people take advantage of this for marketing or just pranking purposes. Visit this Google Page to see where the plane will be.
