Google’s New “Street View” Option

Written by admin in Thursday, May 31st 2007 under Recently

While browsing through Google Maps, I saw a new option/button called “Street View” and was curious to see what does it mean.

I was surprised to know that it gives a view of the place(mostly from a street, intersection) as if you are looking from your own eyes. Fantastic !!!

How to use it (Street View Option).

1. Type an address on text box provided and click on Search Maps

2. Zoom in a little to get to the stree you want to see.

3. Click on the “Street View” Button, You will see most of the street on the maps would get blue border outlined, also you would see a human image/bitmap appear.

4. Drag this image to the outlined street to see what you want to see.

5. You can also click on the blue outlined street and see the view.

Try this for most of the places you want to visit like Stip in Vegas, Golden Gate in SF. But not Grand Canyon, I tried it but could not see the option present.
