Haha, after a few minutes of digging around I managed to find the link to the google maps.

Feature Idea: If you are able to take a screenshot of a specific view, I would put it as a jpg so when I share the url, it shows up as preview pic in the facebook story. I was totally sharing this story and linking to your site until I found there is no preview pic.

I generate screenshots of every featured view, to be used as a backup in case Google update their imagery.

Facebook should pickup the preview image if you use the permalink - first button in the 'share this view' panel.

Add an og:url meta tag that references the permalink, and people will be able to share the original page.

There is a permalink - just below the 'Go' button there's a panel with some sharing options. The first one generates a permalink.

I thought it might be difficult to find - will have to make it more clear, thanks.

Your old picture of skateboarders was better. I would assume that some new visitors visiting the site would be thrown off/confused by a tiger.

Josh: They have a "share this view" in the lower right, where you indeed get a permalink to the current view!
