Back In Time

How nice it would be if we can go back in time to those good olden days, get nostalgic about those days. Now you may have to wait for a few more decades or centuries for time travel (in more than one direction) to be a reality. For now Google maps let you go back and check how your world looked at that time.

Courtesy to another blog post on Makezine, I am made aware of this cool tool from google. If it were to be only about this particular feature, this article would not have deserved any mention here on my blog. Make also gives us direction to a host of other links, which allow you to play with Google Maps. Now the ball is in your court.

For all those who got excited of time travel, you may need to hold your reins as we have a few restrictions. In a blog on Zdnet by Garett which was the source for the post on Make, we also get to see the exact nature of the maps available. Please visit this Google Earth in 4D for details.

I am sure the day is not far of when another Web2.0 company sells you prime real estate from the past !!
