I got this in my reviews today.
Interesting sculpture, thing… So I did what any good reviewer would do and I checked to see if I could see it on Google Streetview and I was greeted with this:
Uh Oh! That doesn’t look right! The supporting photo was NO help…
The building looks the same though, so maybe it’s just mislocated somehow. So I moved the Streetview a single space to the right and, lo and behold:
Nailed it! In actual Google Streetview it lists the Image Capture Date, which for the first picture I shared is October 2020. The second is June 2024.
So I wanted to share this, in hopes that others could learn from this and we all ensure that we’re doing our due diligence in reviewing potential Wayspots, and how something as simple as where you drop your pin can have a huge impact on the information you are presented with.
I do have one question for the Wayfarer team. Can we get the “Image Capture” added to the Streetview in our reviews? Please?
