I get really cool alerts as part of my job at an Online Ad Agency and one of the blogs that I subscribe to is the Google Blog. I found a really cool feature that is great if you are planning a trip or going on a trip. It shows how good website integration with user needs makes interactive a part of our everyday lives.  Check this out:

"Google Street View has a new option to show photos uploaded to the Google-owned Panoramio. "Now you can browse user-contributed photos that have been precisely-matched to Street View images. Gorgeous photos from Panoramio allow you to see some of the world's most famous landmarks at an even closer level," explains Google."

Here is a video of how it works: Video


I hope you find it as fun as I do. Think about it, which hotel should I stay out, take a virtual tour around the corner, not just in your room. Interactive at its best!
