GOOGLE STREET VIEW EXPANDED

Internet giant Google have launched the biggest update yet to their Street View, an online mapping service which allows the browser to view the local area in 3D, as if you were stood on the street.

Having faced a barrage of complaints over privacy from various people globally, the service does make it easier to view locations before actually visiting them.

More detailed imagery of Spain has been included in the update, which takes in lots more of the urbanisations and streets that hadn't previously been shown.

To try and find places of interest, visit maps.google.com with your internet browser. Search or drag around the window, then click and drag the icon that looks like a man, located on the left hand side of the map window, and place him on any street that has turned blue during the dragging process.
