Crowmarsh Gifford

First impressions in comparison with panoramicearth.com:

• Not as clear geo-tagging on 360cities
• Nice to have a compass, but hard to see how to set it correctly - North is actually West
• Proximity of other panoramas and thumbnails is a bit intrusive
• Launch perspective is better (less extreme wide angle) than panoramicearth
• Resolution is pretty poor. I think it gets better if you pay.
• No stats on 360cities
• More useful commercialistation on 360cities 
• Pixel accurate embeds on 360 cities

I was going to thank the lady in the knitted had for providing the foreground interest but she'd left by the time I packed my tripod away.
