Time travel with Google Street View

I always knew Google would do this, it was so obvious. Google Street View now has a new feature that lets you go back in time with Street View to see how any location looked right back to when Googles cameras first captured the view. Now when you start Street View youll see a time stamp on the pop-up Street View window and a time-line with a slider. You can select from any of the points on the slider.
Your street, like mine, probably hasnt changed much. Time magazine has put together a series of time-lapse sequences that show iconic buildings like NYCs One World Trade Center rising out of the ground over the years. This feature will be fascinating to explore in 20 to 30 years time.

Street Cred Game

From the visual side, this game appeared older with pixel art or broken images. Even so, the image is full color makes the game seem more exciting.

When I started playing, you will be given two options namely Qualifier and Nationals. However, to play a game at Nationals session, you must complete the first all race racing at the session Qualifier.

No different from how to play car racing games in general. After selecting a car, you can immediately sped from the beginning to the end line.

Theres nothing that will compete with your enemies. But, do not drive home because there are many obstacles along the way, ranging from ordinary cars to large trucks. Do not let your car hit by another car or truck because it will make you eliminated. But please note that there are some things that you do have to hit to get the bonus value such as money, gold, and nitrous oxide to supplement the cars speed. This car racing game has several levels. The higher the level, will be the more obstacles that must be avoided on the road.
