So I've been playing this since I found out about it on monday, and I'm finding it fun.

You take a look around from a random location using google streetview, then click on a map to guess where you think it is.  After about 6 goes it gives you a total score depending on how close you were.  My best is about 10,000

Okay yeah, that was pretty cool.  Really the only thing that helps me figure out areas a bit better are when I can read a road sign :P

If you play it enough, a lot of them are roads in the middle of nowhere, and you start to recognise road markings a bit, like signs and lines.
I was quite pleased that I recognised the bonneville salt flats and yellowstone.

Neat game!

I just tried it twice, and on my second try I got 12,386 points.  :)

I tried it once and got 18,420 thanks to visible signs giving away two of 'em.
