Neowin reports that Microsoft is touting that Bing has surpassed 100 cities that have Streestside and 3D imagery support



Mobile maps like Bing Maps have been a driving force behind the mass adoption of smartphones. Because you can now get maps of nearly anywhere in the world at any time of the day, it has changed our habits including how we commute, and reduced our dependency on dedicated navigation units too.

While it may seem crazy to think about now, we do wonder if we will ever see real-time imagery from these mapping services. Sure, it may seem like a huge logistical challenge now, but if 30 years ago you would have been told that you could view real-time traffic maps from any city in the world with a small device in your pocket, you may have said the same thing too.
