for some jobs i need to look at the backs online so i use multimaps, street view for directions front view and road conditions is great but multimaps for quoting all the house/office etc.

no its bing (just bought them over) all you do is google it (ah i know what you mean now) and click on the right hand birds eye view the map will darken and all you do is zoom into where you want to view and it gives you all 4 angle of the house etc you are looking at.

Just tried it on my house - you can see all round, ok but because of the angle (almost directly above) you can't see any windows!!
