Double the coverage, double the fun

Posted on 10:30 by Unknown

The Street View team has been pretty busy lately, between the international launches and the re-design, but there's still more: today we're doubling the amount of coverage in the United States. This will bring Street View to some new cities, like Memphis, Birmingham, and Charleston (SC), and also to a few states for the first time, like Maine, West Virginia, North Dakota, and South Dakota. You can read more about this milestone and the big year Street View has had on the Official Google Blog. I'll leave you with a sampling of some of the sights now on display:
