From the Desk of Valerie Schaeffer- Web site

Wouldn’t it be awesome to see a street view of a place you’ve never been?
Perhaps you are taking a trip to the shore and you want to check out the hotel.
Or maybe you have a family living in another state and you want to see where they work.
Check out Google Maps Street View.

Go to Google and click on Maps.
Type in the address you are looking for.
The location will show up on the map.

Click on the balloon of your location.
A photo will pop up. Click on “Street View.”
With this view, you can take a 360 degree look at your location.
You can also use the arrows to “drive” up and down the street.
If you have any questions or want to learn what else you can do with Google Maps, you can go to http://maps.google.com/support/
Please note. Google, while they attempt to update the images on a regular basis, says that most images are between one and three years old.
