I’m just downloading the new beta form the official site. You can read on the official blog what has been changed or come back in few days to find my first review.
p.s.
Don’t worry for my navigation, my main browser is Opera, so even if the beta is too beta I don’t mind :-D
Last week Microsoft Labs released Photosynth, a cool application that enables you to make synth from your photos.
I gave it a try using photo I made while I was having a bike trip just to have fun climbing a mountain and taking some shoots to the other side of the valley in order to test the application. You can see the result of my synth here. I hope you will appreciate that I take photos from several points and that I tried to embrace the whole valley with my shots.
The result it is quite good, all the pictures were matched in the right way and the final effect is cool. The only thing I would change is the way pictures are showed: I can’t stand the fact that the picture I’m looking at is highlighted making evident that the synth is a collage of photos. I think that building the synth as a 3d scene without referring to the photo the it is made of would be a way better.
So far Photosynth is still a geek game, but I think that changing little things it would be the next big thing in photography ;-)
p.s.
I am still waiting for someone I know to post on youtube a video made with his helmet camera. I know I promised to send him some photo I’m making. Actually I am still waiting for photography gods to send me the inspiration for a good shot, so I don’t have any photo to show you :-(
In the past there was a company that had the it just works mantra. Now they are getting bigger and should at least change the tense of their motto as I did in the title of this post.
Our readers (and also at least on of my co-authors) should remember when I unveiled what someone wanted to keep secret. Now it seems that other bloggers decided to tell the world their problems.
But this is not the worst thing for the company that has to pay actors to have someone lining out of their shops to make some photos just to tell the world that there is actually somebody interested in what they’re doing.
Once reality come out also the reality-distortion-filed seems to need some fix: on the Internet the heresy is spreading.
What do you think? Are blogger suddenly become victims of collective madness? Or do you feel like somebody who wake up after a nightmare where you were forced to think different?
Microsoft always knows how to entertain millions of people... with a Blue Screen of Death!
