street view from google maps

this is awesome.

Google Maps
zoom into either new york, las vegas, denver or San Fran
click on 'street view' and drag the wee yellow guy onto a blue road.

Woah, that's some clever shit.
Would be great to attach a 360 street view to my office directions.

Very cool. That would be very useful, for example if you need to go to a place you have never been to you can use this feature to get famillar with the surroundings and what the building looks like.

Yeah that shit is awesome. Better than Google's social modeling project. Too many idiots making nonsense with that.
