It makes me dizzy but its def intriguing and inviting otherwise. I signed up. I'm working on a similar landing for the website promoting my mobile app. NYC based, trying to decide between cityscape and zooming in on a particular experience within the city

Here's what it looks like if you come from a small selection of elsewheres:

Cities:

Campus networks:

Yeah, we also had the same debate on whether we should go with cityscape or first-person street views. I don't think we ever made a final decision, but leaned street view when picking photos.

Our landing page photo changes based on the visitor's IP and host, so most of our effort went into getting the right photos.

On a friendly note, the guy who signed up as no@no.no (seemingly in response to the question "was it worth it?"), probably didn't "no" that.

Nice, all great pictures! Where's your about/contact? Would love to learn more abt loudly, confidentially of course.
