Google has been building its streetview map feature (complete with what's likely the goofiest video they could have possibly created - orange spandex=bad) rather quietly. But the feature has lots of promise. How does a company go about getting all of those digital images? With six VWs outfitted with $45K, 11 lens video cameras. At a cost of $125-$700 per mile, the current 50,000 miles logged adds up to a rather pricey endeavor.
