Google Earth: The Next Level

If you've ever wanted to get as close to the full experience of doing something without ACTUALLY doing it, this is your chance. In this New York Times article, I learned that a website has been launched called EveryScape that gives virtual tours of the insides of stores. As this is obviously a tedious project, the focus thus far has not left Massachussetts (only Cambridge and Lexington, to be exact), in terms of virtual tours of the towns. Other stores can get EveryScape to give customers inside tours for a price ranging between $250 and $2000. While it's cool that we have the capacity (and computer space) for such an innovation, if I'm going to see the inside of a store, I'm going to get the real-life experience. Unless of course EveryScape created a virtual way to avoid Black Friday...
