Web 2.0 apps and services like Flickr (filtered out on our networks) offer a rich treasure trove of possibilities. Why not do a search on French/Spanish...street or shop signs and see what comes?

French products/packaging is a good source for discussion of cultural differences or more likely these days homogenisation...
Can street names be translated into other languages? How would it work for something like Larkspur Avenue? or Busty Bank?
