Curry Up Café Googled!

Worked halfday today, not to worry, my boss was very cool about it, thank you again Boss! So anyways... Chris, owner of Curry Up, invited me a couple months ago to check out his restaurant being Googled. Google has this new thing were you can "Street View" inside a business. Have you ever wanted to know what the place looks like before going in? Now you can! At least this was the description I got... I can't wait to see it!
A couple of notes Chas shared with me;
#Canon Camera w/ Fish Eye Lense
#Shoots at High Low Medium (Exposure)
#He manually spins the camera around...
#Sends signals via Satellite with his NEXUS ONE.
#Google uses Toyota Pruises to take photos for Google Maps, of course the car doesn't take the photos, the camera mounted on them do ^_^.
More than anything, what shocked me was... It was only 1 person doing the whole show. I assumed it would be a crew with crazy Google gadgets. His celphone was the craziest thing there. So simple yet so amazing...
Chas at work. Busy... I didn't even get a chance to take a picture with him. -_-;
White balancing... The process looks sooo simple... It has to be a cover! I bet the Canon Camera is connected via Google through a Satellite.
Chas has to carry this all day. I think Google is doing all of the restaurants on Ventura... Tripod bag or katana bag? Rocket Launcher bag anyone? LOL!
While Chas was at work, I ordered a "Freakin' HOT!" Curry level 2. Ah! An update... Curry Up now has Garlic Rice! GARLIC RICE!!!! It's good, but I think it needs
more chopped galic. That's just me, what do you guys think?
Just in case I make it into Google Maps... I can say... "Look, it's me doing the Freakin' HOT! level 2".
A closer look at my opponent.
Looking at this is making me hungry again.... Oh man... Chicken Katsu... Good job Sony Cyber-shot H20/B!
Yes, I finished the level 2. My photo is now at Curry Up! Look for me and tag it! Say hi, draw hearts, cute anime, etc.. Please be nice LOL! Now that I have accomplished level 2... It was not that bad, I think I'll go for a level 3 next time.
