Trulia Obtains A Street View Syndicate content

Try to search for a house.  Checkboxes concerning prices, square footage, and the number of bathrooms can only take you so far - hundreds of results might show up.  You can peer at tiny, cropped photos, but that's not great, either.  So a new deal between Google and Trulia brings Street View into the picture.

Google, YouTube Grow In San Bruno Syndicate content

I buy clothes once a year or so (if that).  I run searches dozens, if not hundreds, of times per day.  So on the whole, I’m rather pleased with this development: Google is taking over a San Bruno, California property formerly inhabited by Gap Inc.
