Google just recently launched the Google Views section of their maps application. It offers 360° views of interesting locations and amazing sights taken from around the world during their Street View efforts. It also has 360° views of additional locations submitted by users.

Now I am not usually on to encourage reduced productivity during mine, or anyone else’s work day, but I highly suggest you take a few guilty minutes to escape your office or cubicle and travel the world for just a short break. It is almost impossible not to have your spirits lifted after enjoying a 360° view inside The Grand Canyon, on top of a base camp on Mount Everest, or in the ocean reefs off of Heron Island.

Just make sure you do, eventually, get back to work.

Program on, Travel later!
