Google maps lets you wander inside buildings

Google Maps are now apparently venturing into buildings, with a foray into businesses letting you nose around behind the front doors of high street shops.

Business Photos on StreetView allow you to use the now familiar arrows to wander into the store and take a look around.

There's a few examples – including a comic book store in California and businesses in the UK can apply for inclusion.

2010 applications

Apparently, Google started asking for applicants in 2010, but it's only now that the lucky few are arriving in Google Maps.
