Digital time machine using Google Maps

Post by yasir arafat » Dec 24, 2010 Views: 949

[h2]Historypin is a digital time machine that
provides a new way for the world to see and share history,
using Google Maps and Street View. The site allows users to
share images - of streets or buildings, cities or villages -
from their personal photo albums, as well as stories behind
them. It's a really unique use of Street View which means
pictures can be dated as well as geo-tagged and then
"pinned" into place on top of modern Street View
photography for people to explore over time.
It's also a great way to get different
generations hanging out together
over family album.
