Because it's Friday: Google Street View Animations

A number of people are having lots of fun with all of the images that are available through Google Street View.

This first one is called Google Street View Hyperlapse:

There are also an interactive and high quality version available over on the Chemin Vert web site.

Finally, and my personal favourite, there’s a stop motion movie made by UK filmmaker Tom Jenkins called Address is Approximate:
