That is absolutely true, of course.
The thing is that I very rarely actually want to scroll right along a street, I usually only want to get a visual of the place that I am going.
Now, there have been times where I was interested in going exploring, but not as a matter of utility - just because the street view ui begged me to and I was interested in how it worked.
Having said that, I believe that there is a definite place for something that lets me zoom along in 3d land to explore the entire street - because I would love to be able to explore Paris for example - but that really requires a free form of movement that this solution still doesn't speak to.
- fuzzythinker 16y agoMaybe that is precisely why you didn't want to use it -- google's street view interface was not right for you.
- bandushrew 16y agoyeah, it could be. I do use street view, but just because I find it useful to have a visual of the entrance and location of the place I am going. But I agree, aside from the playful inclination to go and explore, its never been a big thing for me.
- arethuza 16y ago"I very rarely actually want to scroll right along a street" I do that all the time for country roads to plan cycle routes - the current Google interface leaves a lot to be desired.
