Tour de Street View
http://googlesightseeing.com/ 2008/ 07/ 02/ tour-de-st...
The first Street View images outside America are now available - Street View has come to France! Added in celebration of the upcoming Tour de France, the street view images are mostly restricted to the race route (rather than allowing you to explore whole cities). However, there is lots to see, including the most classic of sights: The Eiffel tower1. Street View cars have been spotted all over Europe, so other countries are no doubt on the way. In the meantime, let us know what you find in France and, if you speak French, make sure you’re subscribed to Google Sightseeing Français.

La bienvenida de Google al StreetView
http://es.googlesightseeing.com/2008/08/05/la-bienvenida-de-...Mientras el carro Street View pasó por los cuarteles generals de Google en California, el Googleplex, cientos y cientos de empleados de Google salieron para darle una gran bienvenida al carro. Hay montones de cosas que ver, pues los empleados claramente se prepararon para el evento. Por ejemplo, aquí hay un tipo de Street View Amarillo de tamaño real: En otra parte, en un claro intento de satisfacer nuestra necesidad de ver peleas en Street View, un par de Googlers se encuentra en medio de un pequeño altercado. En otro auto homenaje, una pareja está en lo que parece un mini Tour de France. Los chistes locales no acaban ahí. Un Googler aprovecho la oportunidad para hacer una propuesta matrimonial tipo Web 2.0. Ve su sitio web para que averigües si ella aceptó. Hay toneladas de más cosas simples que ver arriba y abajo de la calle, pues parece que el Googleplex se vació para el evento. Así que paseate un rato y comenta tus descubrimientos con nosotros.

Google’s Street View Welkoms feest
http://nl.googlesightseeing.com/2008/08/06/googles-street-vi...Toen de Google Streetview auto langs het hoofdkantoor van Google Californië reed, stond er een welkomst comité klaar van honderden Google medewerkers. Er zijn heel veel dingen te zien, omdat het duidelijk is dat medewerkers zich hadden voorbereidt op deze dag! Bijvoorbeeld het Gele Street View mannetje in levensecht formaat. Ergens anders zijn de Googerlaars aan het vechten, net als dit eerder ontdekte gevecht. Weer ergens anders zijn een aantal mensen bezig met hun eigen mini Tour-de-France, welke niet over de echte route loopt. Deze mensen kennen nogal wat leuke trucs, zo vraagt deze Googelaar iemand ten huwelijk op de “Web 2.0″ manier. Kijk maar eens op deze website om te zien of het allemaal gelukt is. Er is nog veel meer leuks te zien aan de ene en de andere kant van de straat. Het lijkt wel of het hele Googleplex buiten is gaan staan. Zoek en geef hier commentaar op alle leuke vondsten.

Google’s Street View Welcome Party
http://www.geo2web.com/2008/08/05/google%e2%80%99s-street-vi...::: via ::: As the Street View car passed Google’s California head offices, the Googleplex, hundreds and hundreds of Google Employees came out to form a huge welcoming committee for the passing camera car. There’s loads of things to see, as many employees have clearly prepared for the event! For example, here’s a life-size yellow Street View guy: Elsewhere, in a clear nod to our very own discovery of a fight on Street View, a couple of Googlers are engaged in a slight altercation. In another self-referential move, a couple of people are taking part in a tiny Tour-de-France! The in-jokes don’t stop there either - one Googler took the opportunity to make a “Web 2.0? marriage proposal! See his website to find out if she accepted. There’s tons more silliness all up and down the street, as it seems the entire Googleplex came out for the event - so have a browse and share your best finds in the comments!

Google brings Street View to entire Tour route
http://www.tdfblog.com/2008/07/google-brings-s.htmlGoogle Maps - Tour de France 2008 Google is taking Street View on the road. The 3D panorama view for Google Maps is already available in dozens of US cities, allowing you to fly through stitched-together photos of San Francisco's Lombard Street, Broadway, or Ocean Drive in South Beach, Miami. Now, Google is taking the tech outside the United States for the first time, offering Street View for not just the cosmopolitan parts of this year's Tour, but the entire route, from start to finish. Combined with a Google Maps .kml file of the route, you can fly through the entire route, viewing photos of any spot on the course at any time. There's also an official introduction video on YouTube.

Die ersten Google Street View Bilder außerhalb von Amerika sind verfügbar
http://www.digitalnext.de/die-ersten-google-street-view-bild...Die ersten Google Street View Bilder außerhalb von Amerika sind verfügbar 03.07.2008 | Kategorien: Branchen, Digital Life Google Street View in Frankreich In anbetracht der bevorstehenden Tour de France, kann man jetzt aus Frankreichs Hauptstadt die ersten Google Street View Aufnahmen aus Europa betrachten. Der Hauptanteil der Bilder beschränkt sich jedoch noch auf die Rennstrecke der Tour de France. Neben der Rennstrecke lassen sich aber auch Aufnahmen von klassischen Sehenswürdigkeiten wie bspw. dem Eifelturm finden. Jetzt bleibt abzuwarten wann Aufnahmen aus anderen Städten auftauchen. Denn schon vor einiger Zeit wurden Street View Cars in ganz Europa gesichtet, was vermuten lässt das sich das Angebot noch über Paris Grenzen hinaus erstrecken wird. via: GoogleSightSeeing Tags: Digital Life, Entertainment, Google.

Google Maps Street View comes to Europe…
http://www.hitsearchlimited.com/news/999874/…in a limited fashion at least. Many thanks to the Google Sightseeing blog for tipping us off on this. At long last Google Street View has dipped it’s toe into Europe by unveiling a limited set of street level mappings based on this year’s Tour de France root. Google Street Level view of Paris It takes in many of the major French towns and cities so if you have visited anywhere along the route it’s well worth checking out the various sights. Cycling enthusiasts can also check out some of the more challenging features of the route like the infmaous mountain stages. It provides an interesting view of what the roads look like for the rest of the year when they aren’t daubed with painted slogans and lined by throngs of screaming fans (as demonstrated by this nice sleepy view of the Alpine stages). There have been legal rumblings over the use of images containing images of people who have not given their consent so it’ll be interesting to see how this limited roll-out fairs. For the time-being at least we can explore. Would you like to know more about Google Maps?
