ShoestringIsTooFarFromAnyRoads > Michael Askin > http://shoestring_DOT_zapto_DOT_org/ If you want to try your own steerable street view try http://photosynth.net/ You have to free download the program then a string of photo's rotating round where you are. The program joins them up to make a continuous steerable & zoomable view. My first two attempts are on the Sankey & the Bridgewater. http://photosynth.net/view.aspx?cid=0d7a66e4-0d4a-4b7d-888e-3bf9b46419d7 http://photosynth.net/view.aspx?cid=9ca833f3-6100-46a6-bc64-8daddabaa9e5 I find it worth installing to see everyone elses views throughout the world. It would be nice to see one from the middle of the Pontywhatsits!! Dave Croft Warrington http://www.oldengine.org/members/croft/ http://community.webshots.com/user/crftdv
