A9 (Amazon's new web search engine, like Google) has introduced what appears to be the world's first picture guided "Yellow Pages". Just type in what you are looking for and Amazon will come back with a list of places it found. The, click on the picture next to the place you want to go to and it will let you "walk down the street" (picture-by-picture, frame-by-frame) of your destination. This is great for those who prefer "landmark directions" as opposed to written directions.
I believe you can even donate, your own pictures. You can also see other businesses along that street.
Here is an example: Capitol Theater in Arlington, MA
