Google maps game

Here is a little something I made using Google maps. You can view a live version here. The project is up on GitHub. Feel free to do whatever you want to it, considering I pretty much abandoned the project. Either way what do you guys think?

Looks good, but I don't really understand what you are suppose to do on this game? Just randomly click on the map to find a specify street? More information would be nice to understand how to get points.

So when you click on a location it loads two images from Google street view, one is correct and one is incorrect. Score higher points for guessing faster.

It's a fun game for a few minutes. However, it reminds me of geoguesser (http://geoguessr.com/). But that said, I'm sure it was fun learning the coding behind it :)

Ya geoguessr is what gave me the idea to play around with Google maps.
