Today’s Video Break Google Street View on a Bike
Posted by: Mary

Nominate your choice for a visit from the Google Trike! Stonehenge & Warwick Castle have been picked in the UK. Here’s how to add your USA choice (from the Google Blog):

At www.google.com/trike, you can suggest interesting and unique spots in six categories:
* Parks & Trails
* University Campuses
* Pedestrian Malls (e.g., outdoor shopping areas, boardwalks)
* Theme Parks & Zoos
* Landmarks
* Sports Venues (e.g., golf courses, racing tracks, stadium grounds)

Nominations will be open until October 28. We’ll then comb through all of the suggestions and let all of you cast your final votes on a winner from each category for the Street View trike to visit. For any privately-owned or operated location, like a campus or theme park, we’ll work directly with the relevant organization prior to collecting the imagery.

When we unveiled the Street View trike in the U.K., we received more than 10,000 nominations and 35,000 votes; Stonehenge and Warwick Castle were two of the top vote-getters. We can’t wait to see what you’ll come up with in the U.S. — head to www.google.com/trike to submit your most inspired ideas.
