Now we can see Google Maps with a street level view
Here the intro to the service:
http://maps.google.com/help/maps/streetview/
an example (Time Square, NY)
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=&layer=c&cbll=40.75859,-73.98509&cbp=1,16.91913183279746,,0,5&ie=UTF8&om=1&ll=40.760464,-73.984423&spn=0.003746,0.009613&z=17&panoid=v2OYm_eOSnWeujyvpmdZOw
You can use the control panel on the left or drag & drop to turn. Doble click to zoom in. Clicking on the arrows it’s possible to follow the rout of the car.
Zoom out until you see all the US and click on the camera to see other places.
Until now the service is available only in the US, but many Google cars were seen all around Europe.
How is it made? Very very simple: with a car with a camera on its top, making pics every n seconds (watching the pics I suppose about 5 secs)

“You can browse the internet quickly and easily on most new phones. Phones know where they are, thanks to in-built GPS satellite technology or triangulation from mobile phone masts. They can then tell if other phones are in the same area. Bluetooth short-range radio technology is also standard on most mobiles and with this phones can pick up the presence of other Bluetooth-enabled phones within about 20 metres.
Effectively, by linking these two developments, your phone can tell if someone is near you and can access lots of information about them – the perfect ingredients for real social interaction. “
