Using your Android phone or DSLR camera you can now create your very own Street View experience. Up until now you could only post your 360 degree images to Google Maps. Now you can move around between your images just like on Google Street View. You can even publish and connect it to the real Street View by Google.
This is an example of what you can do, created by Evan Rapoport, Product Manager, Google Maps & Photo Sphere.
Just reading the paper.

Peru is not on Google Street View yet. There are some spheres in 360 degrees to look at while we wait for Google to finish Street View images from this beautiful country.
Benny Bennet Jürgens took this funny sphere of some lost bags in Belize. This image has now been added to Google Maps. Spheres are similar to Street View in that you can turn around 360 degrees. The difference is you can’t walk around. Also sphere images can be uploaded by anyone and is not photographed by google.
