Google Street View invades historic landmarks, makes it unnecessary for you to ever leave the house

The vagabonds of Google’s Street View team have struck again, this time conquering classical French and Italian landmarks for their mothership’s immense pictorial collection. As of today, you’re able to drop your little yellow avatar in Google Maps right atop such famous locales as the Colosseum of Rome or Florence’s Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore, whereupon you’ll be transported right to it (or, in the case of the Colosseum, inside it) in the same way as if they were any old street addresses. This follows, of course, Google’s introduction of an intriguing indoor version of Street View for some of the world’s most prestigious museums recently and continues the company’s trend of bringing the arts, in this case classical architecture, to a wider audience.
