There is a great new feature (well, new to me) on Google Maps. It is called street view. For years we have been able to see roads from a satellite, but now there is a new feature. You can see what it looks like to drive down the road. You can look to the left, or to the right and see the faces of buildings and street signs. What it looks like they did was just drive up and down the streets of many major cities with a camera mounted on top of a car. The camera takes a picture about every 50 feet, best as I can tell, and it takes a 360 degree picture. Here is a view of my street.

Click "View Larger Map" and switch to street view if it's not there already.
Mess around with it, find your house if you've been added, or just virtually drive around some place you'd like to go sometime.

Thats really cool Nate. I found myself cruising the IWU campus and was amazed at how many changes there have been already. I also "parked" in front of Sawyer House for nostalgia's sake and thought of the good old days.
