I find this amazing. Unfortunately, there is no Street View yet for Thailand. I used Milan, Italy to try it out, after reading about it in the International Herald Tribune issue of 2 September 2010:

Not sure what you mean that there's no street view. Try: http://www.pattayaphotoguide.com

He means Google Street View, the Pattaya thing is a local mash up.

Yes, it is Google Maps with Google Street View I meant. It would be nice to have Street View for Bangkok and other major Thai cities, but I guess Google has other priorities.

I started it in Chrome, it just opened Winamp and played a tune.... ?

[Puccini]

That is strange. When I open it in Chrome I get the page shown below, without music. Only after I enter and address and click on "Search" does the video with music load and play. What do others get?

[Digitalbanana]

I end up with an amazing amount of time wasted.... site never gets past 97% loading with Chrome or FF using a 6mbps line.
