Time travel with Google Street View

I always knew Google would do this, it was so obvious. Google Street View now has a new feature that lets you go back in time with Street View to see how any location looked right back to when Googles cameras first captured the view. Now when you start Street View youll see a time stamp on the pop-up Street View window and a time-line with a slider. You can select from any of the points on the slider.
Your street, like mine, probably hasnt changed much. Time magazine has put together a series of time-lapse sequences that show iconic buildings like NYCs One World Trade Center rising out of the ground over the years. This feature will be fascinating to explore in 20 to 30 years time.

Were seeing some increasingly creative ideas for using Google Street View and The Guardian has recently shown us another one - Classic album covers in Street View. This features the album cover superimposed over its location; from the obvious Beatles Abbey Road to more modern covers, this is another creative use of Street View.
