Google Maps Give Driver Views

Are you like me, unable to navigate their way out of a paper bag? Google Maps “Street View” (which is enabled for most major cities) allows you to virtually sit in the drivers seat and “drive” your route. Although a similar feature has been available on Amazons A9 search for a year now, Googles implementation is REALLY slick.

A much welcomed feature for the navigationally challenged.

Thats so cool. I guess the pictures are taken by immersivemedia.com. If you go to their website, you can watch 360 degree videos where you can move the camera around you while the video is still playing. Pretty awesome.

I wouldn’t really say that Denver, SF, Las Vegas, Miami, and NYC equal “most major cities.” They are instead, “a few major cities.”

Thanks for bringing this to us readers’ attentions.
