A new web app which shows a Google Street View of locations where photos uploaded to Instagram have been taken has been dubbed a 'stalker's wet dream'.

The app, put together by students at Rutgers University in New Jersey, harvests data from Instagram to tie together photos' location metadata to their physical location.

It allows users to search images by keyword then shows a constant stream of pictures from the cult photo-sharing service - revealing exactly where and when they were taken.
