Google, Korea and Kanye's mom















I recently spoke of my obsession with Google Earth, Google's spy movie satellite imagery program. Fortunately there are others much more obsessed.

Consider a story in the Village Voice about
Google Earth user Popenyc, who has compiled an exhaustive database of "Hip Hop Places," from "Eminem's Childhood Home" (pictured above) to "Kanye West Mom's New House," which proves Kanye is every bit the mama's boy he sounds like on record.

But of course someone has to go and ruin the fun. South Korea has officially complained to the US about pictures of different military sites in that country. Come on, North Korea hasn't even complained (yet) - who do you think you are?
