Kinda wish they'd gone with "bird mode". In addition to being cool, it looks like it would have been more accurate as well :)

- bowmessage 8y agotrue, because the photos were taken by birds
- carlob 8y agoever heard of the phrase bird's-eye view?
- wilg 8y agoYea but if you can make a bird analogy why not a satellite analogy?
- carlob 8y agoMore accurate, less precise
- Rebelgecko 8y agoBird is a slangy term for satellite, so it actually fits pretty well with the Keyhole acquisition
- wilg 8y agoOh I've never heard of that!
- sfcguyus 8y agoWas the photo taken from a birds eye?
- carlob 8y agoWell, now they can use bird's mode as yet another option for directions. I often wish it was easier to get geodesic distance. It is certainly more useful than that uber and lyft ad.
