@AustralianBushman Well, google just followed, right?

You are right, it was in the '90s (I am getting old...). Microsoft's effort was not as seamless as Streetview, as it was done with older technology. In general, if we search Wikipedia for Terraserver (Microsoft's mapping effort in the '90s), it preceded Keyhole ('00ish), which was then bought by Google...

@roquemocan Maybe so, but its interesting that you could have seen any kind of idea on a Microsoft "site" because the Web was not in existence until the 90's not to mention the scripting technology to actually pull off something like Streetview was available until after the mid-90's

@Oracle365 Yes, there WAS a street view (more rudimentary) in the '80s made by Microsoft (of all companies), but I think it didn't get popularized...
