Google has recently updated Google Maps with a street view mode. Just drag a little yellow icon along the streets and there will be street-level photographs for that spot. I just checked a few of my favorite restaurants in San Francisco, and they’re still there.

For starters, have a look at the streets of New York, cross the Golden Gate bridge or drive down Ocean drive in Miami.

Lombard street, San Francisco Driving down steep streets in San Francisco.

This opens up a lot of interesting possibilities in the world of map mashups. While you ponder that, why not take a virtual stroll down California St, without the need to avoid real-life cable cars.
