MapCrunch Street View gallery
I added a gallery to my random Google Street View site a few months ago, to showcase the more interesting images found by users. http://www.mapcrunch.com/gallery This section of the site however doesn't seem to get many visits (around 10% of users visiting the main site), and those that do visit tend not to go beyond the first page of the gallery (again, around 10%). Any feedback on how I might be able to improve the site would be much appreciated. Thanks
MapCrunch Street View gallery launched on March 6, 2011 with 9 votes, #88 of 272 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 15 years on.

The problem we're solving: When you need customer service (your flight got canceled, strange fees on your bill, etc) you just want to talk to a real person. Waiting on hold wastes your time AND your concentration; you can't be coding in the zone when part of your brain is waiting for an operator. Our solution: We wanted to make it "one click" to reach a real person. How it works: You click on who you want to talk to (even a specific department, like the billing dept at…

I recently decided to try out Google Tasks as my only task management system, and while I find some things about the interface great, it really isn't suited for someone like me who has multiple lists with lots of elements on each. So, I whipped this together real fast and I can't imagine using Google Tasks without it anymore. I realized you might want it too, so I put it on the web. Enjoy :)
