A Google Street View pastime


Every now and then, I try to find a Google Street View shot of a landmark.  I've got a few more of these I'll demonstrate, but I'm starting with two in South Dakota (both of which I've seen):  the profile of George Washington on Mount Rushmore, and Bear Butte, an outpost of the Black Hills to the east of the main range.

So here they are.  Now here's the thing:  they're live.  So if you click on them, they move.  And you can pan around and see what's around there.  In the Washington profile shot, there's a group of bikers stopped on either side of the road at the viewpoint.
