Google Maps (http://maps.google.com/) now has a 'Street View' feature for selected cities such as New York and San Francisco. If you click on this feature, major streets are highlighted in blue - by dragging an icon to a street or intersection, you bring up an interactive photograph of that street. It has a 360-degree feature and you can also click on arrows going up the street to automatically bring up the next view.

This is awesome for bus photographers looking to plan a trip to a new city. Hopefully, Google will expand this to other cities before too long.
