Today Google announced and launched a pretty amazing new feature to Google maps. The Street view.
You may be asking yourself, how do they take a satellite picture from that angle… uhhh yeah… it’s not a satellite photo. Google has broken out of the mold and has hit the streets apparently with the help of a company called Immersive. As you can see from the video and pics it is a pretty amazing tool. They currently only have 5 cities available, but I’m sure there are more to come. So far it’s:Miami, San Francisco, Denver, New York City, and Las Vegas
Joel Burslem points out on the Inman blog that it will have a “great application” in real estate, but I’m not so sure yet… After playing around with it for a while and considering the markets available, and the cities themselves, I see very little value for the residential marketplace.

Right, let’s get this week’s iphone news out of the way first. Another leaked document from AT&T apparently claims there’ll be no pre-sales, in the states at least, so bad news if you were hoping to show off to your friends by getting one ahead of everyone else. Apple’s said it eventually wants to sell 10 million, so hopefully you’ll get one in the end.
Meanwhile, phone rival Nokia’s welcomed the iphone to the market – saying it’ll boost consumer appetite for more expensive models- though the firm is quick to point out they’ve been in the multi media handset market for a while. Nokia CFO Rick Simonson has said ‘Don’t get me wrong, they will bring some things to the table…but we have been investing in the area for some time’.

Google has recently launched it’s own 411 service, perhaps in response to Microsoft’s purchase of Tellme networks which specialize in telephone based applications. This new service is ad-supported, like most of Google’s applications, and is basically another step in Google’s plan to introduce add-supported search services. Techcrunch writes :"Goog-411 can be accessed by dialing 1-800-GOOG-411. The product is completely automated and there is no way to talk to a human for additional or clarifying information. You tell it your city and state, and then ask for a specific business or business category. In my tests the product was excellent. Although the voice recognition was only working at about 70% efficiency, I just said “back” and retried when it didn’t understand what I said. Results are spoken back or text messaged back to you, and you are automatically put through to the phone number requested."
