It's not secret that we love panoramic imagery of NYC-- and one of our favorite sources has long been Urban75. Their NYC panorama page has dozens of 360-degree images of the city-- and the November 2005 update added at least a dozen more. Some of the new ones: Orchard Street (seen above), Mercer Street, Battery Park, Ellis Island, Grand Central, East River, Williamsburg Bridge. Awesome!

Awesome? Not quite. Dinky, lo-res Java panoramas are nearly worthless. You can't see much detail in them and they're much too small to give a sense of immersion. Contrast the World Wide Panoramas site you linked to in your earlier story or Panoramas.dk, both with huge, gorgeous, hi-res, fullscreen QTVR panoramas. Heck, Dizzycity.com had Ipix panos that looked better than this.
