"Street View" on Google Maps
Pretty cool new feature for those of you who haven't seen it. You can view the selected streets from a car point of view. I've only seen it work for highways so far though.
Technology these days is redonkulous.

It is pretty badass, I'm waiting for them to expand the thing and map out places all over.

Yeah, it's pretty cool. I took a internet "drive" through my old neighborhood in Denver the other day. I could basically 'walk' right up to my old front door. It's cool you can see people walking their dogs, mowing the lawn, playing frisbee in the park. It was a fun 'drive' lol.

Haha. The satellite view has been around for years. 
They don't have very many roads on there right now, unfortunately for "Street View". It's a start though.

I was on Google Maps this afternoon and there wasn't a button for it. There is now though.
Just click a road that's highlighted in blue.

This feature is useless till I can get live streaming and the ability to peak through windows, and look over privacy fences at pools.
