MapJack beats Google Street View... at least in Chiang Mai

Looks like Google Street View finally has some competition from an upstart company here in San Francisco called MapJack.
I've been hearing about MapJack for a few weeks, and finally had a chance to look at their streetviews of Chiang Mai, and I am impressed. Razor sharp images, seamless pano stitching, zoom capability, and somehow they managed to make busy Chiang Mai look like a deserted city. Hey! Where are all the crazy tuk tuks?

The Chiang Mai page starts at Wat Chiang Man in the center of the old city, but it's easy to move around town. I found Daret's Guesthouse (no backpackers in sight) near the Tapae Gate, and Burger King near the Night Market.Links of Interest:
