Birds eye mode- you have a better angle of aerial photography. Here in this picture you can see an example where I have zoomed in with bird’s eye mode on.

When you have typed in example Liverpool, this picture will come up (figure 18) . And Liverpool was one of the cities that you had to choose from when you could choose to use the street side function. It is here you choose where you want to use the streets view.

Figure 20 shows what a street photo/view looks like, this is so amazing since you can look at things and it looks like it’s real and almost feels like you are there looking with your own eyes.
Some other things that you can do on Bing Maps are you can create a list of places that you want to go back and look at the next time you use Bing Maps. You can look at the current traffic or if you want directions from a place to another you can get it. Figure 21 shows how you do it.

All of these sites are very similar as they all offer you a site where you can look up ways to travel and how to do it. You can see the maps have different types like 3D. One thing that was not the same was that on Nokia Maps you had to download to use the 3D maps. I think Google Maps was the best when you are going to find routes from one location to another and when you are travelling. The best thing abaout Bing Maps was the 3D map function, it was really good. One different thing was that on Google you had to create an account just to have save your list of places that you have as your favorites. On Bing Maps and Nokia Maps you didn’t have to do that.
