Photo viewing software is photo viewing software. You hear people talk about Picasa or iPhoto, but to me, the plain Jane Windows photo viewer is good enough. Needless to say, I rarely pay attention to anything dealing with software of this nature.

Microsoft has something that seem really empressive, it looks like this years TED conference showcased the most advance photo viewing software Ive ever seen in my life. Doing some reading lead me to the Microsoft Labs page talking about Seadragon and Photosynth. Photosynth is somewhat of a photo viewing software platform that does some truly amazing things. Its something you gotta see for yourself, so heres the video demonstration.

Thanks Sid for the heads up.
