EveryScape launched a three-dimensional search web site that allows people "drive" through the streets and even "walk" into buildings. This web site is kind of "Google Street View" meets "Google Maps" meets "Citysearch".The purpose of the web site is to give you a good experience of what some place looks like before you visit. It currently supports only 4 USA cities: New York, Boston, Miami and Aspen but it will probably grow quickly.
The site lets you browse popular places and categories or type an address of a business and either use the "Auto Drive" option to look-around or "You Drive" option to check everything on your own. It's really nice to look for restaurants this way, besides getting the address on a Google Map and review, you can walk inside the restaurants and get a tour around to see what it looks like before you decide to visit there.
The main difference between EveryScape and Google Street View or Microsoft Street Side is the business model. EveryScape makes deals with the businesses to create the tours inside the building (attractions, hotels, restaurants etc.) instead of just showing their ad on a map.
