Panoramio has a lot of nice photos but just by using it you can tell that it's outdated and not being actively developed. We want to do more than that: local live streams, videos (drone, vines, etc.) as well as VR with 360° photos and videos.

Our goal is to help you get a feel for any place as it currently is and see what's happening there right now, for example weekly local markets, festivals, annual events, etc. Thus the focus is on live and recent visual content that will stop being displayed after a certain time (possibly 1 month).

A cool thing we can potentially do with this is time travel. You'll be able to see what was happening at any place at any given time on Lucal with a timeline slider.
