Google Street View

Google Street View is a function within Google Maps and Google Earth. Both services provide satellite images of selected areas, but they can only be zoomed in to limited degree. Google Street View enhances the services by allowing users to zoom in to ground-level, which will display a 360-degree image of a selected street.

Google Maps

Google Maps is a web-based mapping service that allows users to get driving directions, view satellite photos of earth, and use various other map-based functions. Google Maps is a free application from the search engine Google.Official Site: Google Maps1

On February 4, 2009, Google announced the release of the Google maps feature Latitude. The feature allows smartphone and laptop users to share their location with their contacts, if they chose to do so, by being tracked by GPS

Google Earth is a stand alone Google application based on a product originally developed by Keyhole, Inc, which Google acquired in 2004. Essentially a globe that sits in one\'s computer, the technology uses satellite imagery that allows the user to both zoom in to a particular place or pull back for an overhead view.

Fresh iPhone Apps - Fresh Apps

Freshapps is something like Digg for iPhone apps. You can vote (make fresh) for the app you like and leave comments/reviews for others to read. If you are an app developer, you can also submit your app for others to vote on.

One thing that I like about this site is that you are able to sort the various apps either by the newest, most fresh or the most discussed. You also can only get it to show paid or free apps and when it was added.

For those who are always looking for good and interesting apps, this is a good place to check out.
