How to use street view in Google Earth

Google Earth has just had some good news, it has been downloaded 1 billion times and growing fast. The software that allows us to view the earth with satellite imagery stunned us when it first launched. With Street View it takes things to a whole new level. You can now traverse the earth through all it's streets. It is important to remember to get a proper street view Google Street View cameras must have first have been there. In countries and ares where the Google cameras have not yet visited, you will not have a street view. You may still have ground level views but now street views.
