there are a few bridges and scenic spots that might lend themselves to panoramas:

and it appears that Muybridge was using quicktime to make panorama's back in 1878 ;)

[ that pano with the umbrella & bay, is the place in Dahab where the terrorist bombing happened. The CNN article referred to "body parts" flung into the bay..that was the place! I was eating breakfast there & my hotel was 100 ft away. I missed getting blown up by 4 weeks! ]
I'd like to do one, with some Vlogger pioneers in the pic. Say, at the San Francisco water front. Or, the Exploratorium:

at one of the exhibits, say video-technology one. Or, do some conventional photography (get creative) with pioneers like:

[ I need to know who they are, I'm not that well informed in this regard ]
Sidenote:
Check out the Exploratorium's video-podcast of their Live eclipse project:

Mine is also avialable on the "Eclipse Science" video-podcast over iTunes, see the video-blog at:

I blogged my entire eclipse trip:

I was amazed at the Internet connectivity in all the Egypt places I went, even a hole-in-the-wall Internet Cafe in Sallum/Egypt (small border town, Egypt & Libya border):

[ this Internet Cafe was in a back-alley, on the 2nd floor..talk about 3rd world type of thing. They were using *shared bandwidth* over get this..DIALUP!! Man, were the downloads slow! But, it was nevertheless a Internet hookup. The manager was Egyptian, with an American wife in Detroit..unbelievable. ]
Check out this Internet Cafe in Marsa-Matrouh (between Sidi Barani & El Alamein..big names in WWII history):

http://solareclipse.textamerica.com/?r=4523911&_ctgry=23120
[ that's a very attractive Internet Cafe operator, BTW! ]
There was a really excellent Internet Cafe in Dahab (along Red Sea, across from Saudi Arabia..north of Sharm El-Sheikh, that place the politicians goto to meet about "Middle East issues" ]. Don't have a pic, but it was DSL access & the manager spoke good English & was very knowledgable..who was Christian BTW. I have his contact into (email). Unfortunately, Dahab was the place that got hit by the "terrorist bombing" (One man's terrorist, is another man's Freedom-Fighter).
I even blogged usiing the DSL computer terminal at Magy Hotel in Cairo/Egypt.. no charge! See:
http://www.hostelz.com/hotel/32502-Magy-Hotel
[ you can see the Internet terminal in those pics ]
I even blogged from the house I stayed in Salloum:
