Each Daily Cuppa Go post is like a daily newspaper to enjoy with your favorite cuppa. There's a series of related stories on a theme, and just like a newspaper, you can browse as your time and interests lead you.

Random street views around the world - Yep, this website does exactly what it says: drops you on a random street somewhere in the world! You can either just let it drop you anywhere in the world, or you can use the search function (left side of page) to choose a country. Once the street image shows, you can use the arrows to travel forward or backwards and explore the neighborhood. NOTE: Most of the world is open space, without people, so odds are you'll see a lot of the world's rural areas, which is wonderful in itself! If you prefer a little more control over your destination, use this ShowMyStreet.com link and choose a specific destination worldwide (addresses, cities, points of interest), then look around the neighborhood!
