Google Maps Street View
Has anyone else come across this yet? It's quite fascinating you can walk around the streets in different cities in America, almost like you would in a computer game. It's quite realistic as it is based on real photographs. Not bad if you are planning a trip to a city you haven't been to before, but it does seem to have some issues regarding surveillance, try it out yourself under google maps, street view. I believe thay are planning to do it in Europe as well but have peoples faces blurred out. Interesting.

Interesting. Reminds me of an online project (can't remember the link)of famous buildings in 3D where users submit images of particular building and software figures out positioning and angles of the fotograph and renders the photograph on to 3D model for every one to explore, this is in Beta Testing stage.
