Thanks, Google! If you happen to be lucky enough to be a real estate agent in Boston, Dallas, Fort Worth, Indianapolis, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Detroit, or Providence, you now have the power of Google Maps Street View and street level imagery.
Add Google Maps Street View tool to your listings on your website, or when you email your customers, and they now have the ability to actually "walk the streets" of the property location. You can do this easily through what Google terms as "Embeddable Panoramas". This is an amazing tool!
| View street level photographs (select cities) | |
| Take virtual walks; pan, rotate and zoom | |
| Explore cityscapes, landmarks, points of interest | |
| Find shops, restaurants, parks, hotels and more |
You can paste directly by following easy directions for using Google Maps Street View: Click Link to this page, copy the web address from the Paste HTML to embed in website field in your browser and paste it into the HTML code of your website. To resize and preview the map, click Customize and preview embedded map. Or just click Send, and off it goes to the email recipient. Easy.
I just may have to move to one of these cities, in order to be able to use this cool tool. Hopefully Google will continue to add new areas in the future.
