Google Street View

Google is enhancing Google Maps service with a new addition Street View Feature that allows you to view photos of roads in nine major cities across US. To use Street view drag the human icon to a street. Street View is available in high resolution for San-Francisco and San Diego, other cities use lower resolution. To snap the pictures Google used mounted digital cameras on the roof of a passenger car and drove around the cities. Google has no set of plans to take the pictures on regular basis though.
