Just saw this new site in beta. www.everyscape.com
Defintely worth checking out. It's a mapping site with a difference. You can browse a location as if you are inside it. You can walk into a restaurant in New York City and walk past the diners to the back, turn around and walk out again. Kind of like those 3D virtuals tours. Nothing new right? Wrong. This time you get to walk out the resturant, along the street and check out another building by going in the front door. Very cool.
You also get to see the 2D map to the right in a side panel to see where you are walking.
They've got trial versions of 4 US cities at the moment.
There's some pretty interesting revenue opportunities here for them if it takes off. Hoteliers, ticket brokers, restaurant booking agents, travel agents, they'll all want to get linked it if gets critical mass.
