Nah, just go down a little further north, to the end of the road. I'll be right here when you get back, promise.

It drops you in a random location in Street View--anywhere in the world, or limit it to specific countries, cities, etc.
Tool around in Street View looking for clues to your location. (Oh look, a sign for a eucalyptus oil distillery and a street named South Coast Road--southern Australia maybe?)
In another little window, zoom all the way in on a world map and click where you think you are. It will show you how close you were and award points.

That tells me "no results found for your search".
Has anyone tried wandering around central London on streetview recently? It might be fixed by now but for a while they were using pictures taken after dark and you could hardly see anything.

I'm pissed off at streetview. I managed to get in it when the car drove near my workplace last summer. They updated the photo sometime last fall. This thread had prompted me to go back and check it out, but it had already been overwritten by another pass they did in October.
HOWEVER, the streetview of my house hasn't been updated since 2013. I've had the siding replaced since then and would prefer to see an updated result. Another house on my street also had major renovations done and the house next door was completely bulldozed and rebuilt.
I had never heard of the time travel function before. It's available on my residential street, but not in the part of downtown DC where I work.
