The Street View!
Check this out...
Find a location... Maybe something like the middle of the Golden Gate Bridge?
Then click on the Street View Button.
A window will pop up showing the view from the street from that vantage point!
You can then drag the picture around and see behind you, to the side, move up the road or back the other way!
As you view a map - the blue highlighted roads are available for Street Viewing!
One of my other favorite spots is along the Cabrillo Hwy near Devil's Slide.
Google has catalogued only certain metropolitan areas of the country so far (denoted by the camera)
- San Francisco
- Las Vegas
- Denver
- Miami
- New York
They even have a video!
Let me know if you see me "On the Road!"

Teri - I hate to tell you this but they already can - it's just a matter of how legal it is for them to ticket you for it.
Cheryl - My contact at Google says they're almost done with it.
