Roof-top advertising for Google Maps

Some business owners are painting the roof of their building so that they get a free advert of Google Maps – cunning.

A Target store has already done this, and I’m sure there are more examples too.

It would be really cool if the BBC would put something on our building.

(In fact you can see how old the satellite images are over UK – the building I’m in is the one to the top-left of the complex – it was completed over a year ago, yet the photo still shows it half-built.)
