Google, the search-engine Borg entity steadily injecting itself into every facet of your existence, has introduced two new features which should prove indispensable to fans looking for latest in free and easily accessible technologies with which to track their favorite celebrities. First, L.A. was one of four new cities outfitted today with the "Street View" option on Google Maps, giving users explorable 3-D photo environments that approximate the common celebutard experience of stumbling out of a West Hollywood nightclub in broad daylight, then trying to relocate one's towed vehicle despite suffering from an extremely distorted sense of depth perception.

Our friends at CurbedLA, meanwhile, guided us to a nifty feature that gives any address its "Walk Score"—meaning how pedestrian-friendly it is to shops, restaurants, parks, and schools. They tabulated some high-profile area residences, and learned that while Brad Pitt and Jen Aniston's Taj Mahal of Lost Love earned highly inaccessible Walk Score of 8, Paris Hilton's WeHo home earned a far more respectable and suspended-license-friendly 75.
