New Google Widget Lets Android Users Embed Photo Spheres on Any Website

Late last year, Google one-upped Apple's iOS 6 Panorama feature by bringing a special street view-style panorama app called "Photo Sphere" to Android 4.2. With the app, users can create 360-degree panoramas that can be viewed as both flat images and explorable street-view "spheres."

The only real pitfall was the fact that you were extremely limited when it came to viewing them as "spheres," the way there were meant to be viewed. Unless you were viewing the photo on the device you took it on, Google+ or Google Maps, you were given a standard, flat panorama. Well, we can now consider that problem solved thanks to Google's new Photo Sphere Widget.
