Google Streetview - now on the slopes and various Olympic sites

This is pretty nifty. Google has taken their Streetview camera - the ones that give those great shots that you can follow down a particular street - and have moved them out to ski slopes, starting with the upcoming Winter Olympics.

This link will take you to the Alpine skiing sites, and there are links for more events, such a bobsled and so forth. There is a neat little YouTube video on the page that shows how they did it with a snowmobile. Cool stuff!
