Google StreetView to go inside of buildings now, comic book shops included!

[DiceX]

Cool idea, but it didn't work for me. Only zooms in on the building. Even the link to the comic store participating didn't work

 

This is what you should be seeing. You can navigate within the store as well.

 

 

The link takes me to the google street view, but it only zooms in on the building and there doesn't appear to be any link to enter the building. Maybe it only works on home computers and not android phones.

Move mouse onto floor of store...

You should see two arrow heads. Click on the top one to move forward.

Click on bottom one to move back

 

Once I navigate out of the store and onto the street, I can't figure out how to get it back into the store.

They have a camera crew up in my small intestine right now.

 

Watch out for the boom mike. Usually carried by the keygrip.

I wanted to invite you to come in to my store, which is located across the street in from Google in Mountain View California. Have a look around!

Nice shop, Lee. How long did it take him to do your store?

 

Note, if you pan the view straight down, you can see the guy's tripod.

 

 

[Leescomics]

It took around an hour as I recall.

If you check by the mirrored glass at the back of the store, you can see the photographer's reflection.

Also, I think I figured out how to embed, so I'll try it here.
