Marriage proposals, whether simple or elaborate, are always something that people strive to be unique. Luckily, the world of web 2.0 has opened up some new doors for people to be the first in history to propose via a new medium. First we had the Twitter proposal (followed up by a YouTube divorce). Next was a proposal via Reddit, a social news website, where the fiance-to-be could rate the proposal up or down, along with the rest of the world. And now we have a proposal via Google StreetView.

Michael explains more on his website:

"My name is Michael Weiss-Malik, and I work for Google. I don't work on the Street View team, but I interact with them pretty regularly. They decided to coordinate a pre-announced Street View run outside Google's Mountain View offices, with the idea that Googlers could line up along the street and appear in the imagery. So I put together my "Proposal 2.0" billboard and showed up, hoping that it'd be readily visible. And it was!"
