Coolest thing ever?

If this isn't the coolest thing ever, it's pretty close.
I'm sure most of you have used Google Earth - an aspect of the Google website that will give you 360-degree street views of any address on the planet. It's really cool to go see my own house, for some reason - it's not like I haven't seen it before, but it's like being in a low-flying plane and looking for landmarks: “I can see my house from here!”
One of the best aspects of Google Earth is getting a street view while figuring out directions to a new place… if you're a landmark person like me, “near the high school” will be much more helpful getting someplace than “West Hill Road.”
Well our friends at All Star Medical in Hermitage, Tenn. have taken that one step further: they're giving you 360 views of inside their location. You can walk from one end of the provider's location to the other, zoom in on products and spin in a circle to see everything that's around you.
In a not unrelated note, those lift chairs look insanely comfy and I now want one. (I've heard since writing this blog that those are Golden chairs and have reserved a test drive at the next Medtrade!) The photo quality is so good you feel like you could reach out and touch the fabric. How cool is this?
Of course, I wouldn't want to do this with my own home, but to showcase a business this way? What an awesome idea.
