Good thing he doesn't live in Portland. 25 seconds of the video would look exactly the same.

But it would be a pretty exciting 25 seconds...

Neat, thanks. Reminds me of the thought I had when I first saw an aerial view of my house online: one or two decades from now, when I'm browsing my favorite online mapping site, I expect to be able to flip through years worth of old satellite/aerial views of the location I'm viewing. How cool would that be?
Google, make it so.

That Portland hill thing always kills me, I cannot figure out what the first driver shown was hoping to accomplish.
The seasonal video is lovely.

But 2008 isn't over yet.
When you have 365 days in 40 seconds, 9.125 days go past in a second. I think we won't miss much in the next few days.
