iPad Maps with Google Street View: It's Just Like Being There!
The Maps app on iPad (and iPhones running iOS 4) is very useful in helping you figure out where you are and how to get somewhere. It also has a feature that can virtually place you at a location, to actually be able to look around, using Google Street View.
Launch the Maps app and then drop a pin on the map or just use your current location. Tap the location's pin or blue ball to bring up the information bar. In the left part of the bar is an red-orange circle with the icon of a person in it. Tap this icon.
The Maps app will zoom in on the location and present a 360-degree view of the area. Swipe to rotate the camera view. You can pinch to zoom the picture, too. Tap virtual arrows on the street to move around the map, as though you were actually walking on the street.
