By now, we all know about the awesome PhotoSphere feature that the camera app in Android 4.2 is going to be equipped with. The PhotoSphere mode will allow you to capture 360° spherical views, or to be clearer, a 360° panoramic image, similar to the effect you get when you check out a Google Street View image. Really awesome feature, which makes Panorama mode seem so passe.

What’s even better, is that once you have clicked your PhotoSphere image, you can choose to upload it to Google Maps, which makes it available in its Street View app. That’s so cool. To add to that, the GPS location of the image is automatically tagged, and made available for others to view on Google Earth, Google+, and even Google Search.

While StreetView already has a huge number of locations already available in its database, imagine the number of user-added images that are going to get added via this awesome feature. That’s really smart, Google – using the users to contribute to a service that they so often use. By introducing this feature, Google just ensured that there would be a street view image of every place possible, where an Android 4.2 device exists. +1 to you again, Google.

Can you think of some other fun daily-life uses of adding your Photosphere captures to Google Maps? I can think of a few naughty ones, but let’s hear your ideas first.
