Google Street View: Sort of like being there

I've passed a number of way points that I checked out in Google Maps / Street View.  Among these are the gas station at the end of CA 120 in Benton, the road that leads to Area 51.  It's odd to pass them in real life.  There ought to be a FourSquare checkin button.  Or it's the ultimate scavenger hunt, with 6000 miles of trophies.
