Just been playing around with streetview. Quite amazing. In the context of the member's pins, it's like taking a stroll in your 'hood.

It might be more interesting to first be in satellite imagery mode. get down nice and close to where you want to be. What you do is drag the little "man" icon. The streets with streetview light up in blue. A dotted circle appears below him: drop this onto one of the defined street lines.

Once in streetview, you can pan around with the controls in upper left corner, and click on the arrows down the street to "travel". Really like one of those ancient computer adventure games, if anyone know what I am talking about

Some places have it a lot, some have it some, some sadly not at all. I was looking forward to a stroll through Dubai or checking out near Dave's, but no luck. I have enjoyed wandering around Jan and Penny's neighbourhood a bit, though, so far. I may well have questions for people as if I'd come around for a wander
