Pursued


You have been kidnapped and tossed in the trunk of a car.  Eventually you escape but you do not know what city you are in.  Using Google Street View you have a limited time to try  and discover where you are.
Check out the embedded video below as I play the first level.  This could be great in a World Geography class or any class that uses Google Street View as a tool.


Just watched the video again and the other giveaway was the street sign in the last shot where I guessed the city.  To visit the site click here.

Google Street View - Venice


Google street views have have mapped out pretty much everywhere a car can go but Venice is not for cars.  Today Google Street Views launched their panoramic views of Venice after digitizing it on foot and by gondola.  To see the views click here.  In the lower right hand corner you will see 6 dots.  Mouse over them to pick an activity and then click on it.  You can then cruise around Venice's back streets on foot or take a gondola ride.  Ciao



If you are really interested in Venice the following video on the workings of Venice might appeal to you.
