The google function is not exactly the same as the pagesjaunes function. I don't think you can just get a photo of an address.

This is how I have used (and enjoyed) google...

In the main maps.google.com pages, enter a type of business "near" and an address. For example: restaurant near 33 Rue de Lille, 75007 Paris, France

It will bring up a list of restaurants near the address. The first on is Hotel Pont Royal. Click on "more info" and you will get reviews, photos, etc.

I used this to find restaurants, bakeries, groceries, etc. near my apartment (with a chance to read reviews, etc. beforehand).

My main problem with pj is my lack of knowledge of the French language, so it has been hard to navigate.

No, I'm following up on a post about two up (Author: lauraallais).. I've been using the Google maps a lot, and never saw a link to a photo for an address.

I've thought for a long time that any sort of software - websites included - starts going downhill after release 3.0.

I don't have any trouble with pagesjaunes in Firefox, though, and I do like the feature of navigating on the map and having the photos change accordingly.

www.pagesjaunes.fr is still blank for me, but when I tried the URL that cocofromdijon gave -- success! photos!
and I'm still using IE on a PC.
Thanks.
