Unfortunately if the city you are looking for hasn't been mapped (ie driven through) you won't be able to see it. limey,

It is faster, it has options for controlling the image quality, you can chose to move slowly or fast by skipping some of the blue dots, and it has a much better full screen view.<br /> <br /> I hope Google will learn from this.

I've been living in San Fran for 20 years and MapJack pics sure are nice!! When I compared them to Googles it felt like Google took their pictures in the 80s with that grey hazy depressing feeling to them, not to mention ghosts, double vision and other artifacts.

When you see them, you wanna go there, to that very location. Google's pictures are more like a crude version of what it really looks like.<br /> <br /> For example, compare this:<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.mapjack.com/#KkGnWtG7bFAD" title="http://www.mapjack.com/#KkGnWtG7bFAD" target="_blank" ref="nofollow">http://www.mapjack.com/#KkGnWtG7bFAD</a><br /> <br /> With this:<br /> <br /> <a href="http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=37.812327,-122.411706&spn=0.008374,0.019956&z=16&om=1&layer=c&cbll=37.808374,-122.41456&cbp=1,166.098868317926,0.501671471244243,0" title="http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=37.812327,-122.411706&spn=0.008374,0.019956&z=16&om=1&layer=c&cbll=37.808374,-122.41456&cbp=1,166.098868317926,0.501671471244243,0" target="_blank" ref="nofollow">http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=37.812327,-122....</a><br /> <br /> And why is the URL so long?<br /> MapJack's pictures looks great!

For example, compare this:

With this:

And why is the URL so long?
