Ah, I saw the "Quest" button yesterday but didn't press it since I figured it was some new beta-level Google trip building/privacy destroying tool.

My street disappears in Quest view, for some reason.

The video on this page is pretty well done.  Normally I am anti-gigantic monopolistic companies, as they made the world a worse place for peons like me...   but for today I've been won over with Google's charm.

That is just crap American companies trying to appease to those people who grew up with Nintendo, and Atari. For the longest I have been seeing a string of films, and such. All of that was already done, and I am so tired of it all.
