More cool stuff from maps.google.com - Street Views show you a dynamic image of the place you click on. Any road outlined in blue has a photo available. The little person icon shows the current location on the map. The green arrow under the person points in the direction you're looking in the photo. By dragging the image of the street view, you can look around 360°. Use the arrow buttons on the screen, or on your keyboard, to navigate down the street. Here's a handy demo video, along with some sample street views.
Traffic uses color codes to show you reported road conditions in certain areas.
