Photosynth—a free photo-sharing service launched Thursday by Microsoft Live Labs is a fabo new online software program that utilizes multiple photographs of one thing --a room, a house, something stationary, a landscape-- taken from several angles, and collages them together into a three-dimensional panoramic image.
Free to new users who receive 20 gigabytes of memory to try it out. Download it from the Photosynth site, and you can browse "synths" that other users have already created and uploaded... Pretty cool--you have to have a broadband connection and your images can be viewed by all--fun!
" Imagine being able to share the places and things you love using the cinematic quality of a movie, the control of a video game, and the mind-blowing detail of the real world. With nothing more than a bunch of photos, Photosynth creates an amazing new experience."
