Geekfill - Your daily fill for geektastic awesomeness!

Microsft showed off their amazing new Steet Slide technology at this week’s Siggraph show in LA. Unlike Goggle’s street view, Street Slide puts together multiple panoramas into one single large strip of image that users can scroll through side to side.

It lets users skim around long stretches of street, as if they were looking out the window of a moving vehicle, then stopping to get out and look around, once they’ve reached any one particular spot within the series. This obviously works better for long, straight roads, but in large cities and even small towns where a main avenue is prevalent, it can create a browsing experience that is more seamless and that requires less clicking.

Check out the demo video of the upcoming technology in action below
