Google Street View

Posted in General Business, How To's on January 6th, 2009 by maurice

Over the years Google has out done itself again and again, starting out as a simple search engine, and quickly more useful features were added. Most people would agree Google maps was one of the most ground breaking achievements to date. Now with the addition of “Street View”, Google has made this spectacular feature all the more useful.

What is Google Street View?

Google street view gives users the ability to change from a normal Google Maps view (if you have not used this before, it can be accessed here), to seeing the street in a virtual 360 degree view. This feature is excellent for people who want to plan ahead on trips, as you can see exactly what a location looks like before you have been there. Is it also a lot of fun to use as a virtual tour function. There are plenty of online websites with national land marks to view, as well as strange, amazing, and very exotic places.

Below shows where the street view button is located on Google maps.
