So how does this work? I'm guessing it uses some sort of geoip database, but those are usually specific to an ISP, so you'll end up visitors from the same local ISP show up on the same location. I'm guessing they add a random (deterministic) bit of noise to each IP to mix things up a bit.

I got Amsterdam (presumably the RIPE routing) and a quick flash of Birmingham UK but the city centre rather than the bit I live in a few miles out. Then lots of US locations so presumably the images are changing as other users access the page.

When the page loaded for me my IP and a street view 13 miles away from me loaded in the upper left hand panel...

Read later that it updates with each visitor...
