Cool photosynth

As usual i was browsing the net when i came over a new program developed by Microsoft. Its called photosynth. So i thought of trying it which i did and i have to tell you something. This thing is awesome. It has great potential.

Now about photosynth. Photosynth is an amazing new technology from Microsoft Live Labs that will change forever the way we think about digital photos.

This software takes a large collection of photos of a place or an object, analyzes them for similarities, and displays them in a reconstructed three-dimensional space.

With Photosynth we can:

• Walk or fly through a scene to see photos from any angle.
• Seamlessly zoom in or out of a photo whether it's megapixels or gigapixels in size.
• See where pictures were taken in relation to one another.
• Find similar photos to the one you're currently viewing.
• Send a collection - or a particular view of one - to a friend.

I have tried this and i am going to put some screenshots here. This software doesnot open in its own. It works with the browser. There are some requirements though. Its going to put lots of work on the graphic card. So it will not work with older cards. The requirements are give here:

If you have a good system, why don't you try it out.

Windows XP Service Pack 3 released

Yep, the most awaited Service Pack for XP has been released. Its available for download ( free ofcourse ) at the Micro$oft site. XP OS was a big it when it was launched. It ran easily on computer which were made for Windows 98/2000. And it had no compatibility problem unlike Vista. I used XP for quite some time before i moved to vista. I bought a new PC which was vista compatible and never used XP since. Even though Vista is my favourite because of it style, looks and friendliness, i still like XP. The release of SP3 for XP shows that its still abudant out there.

One of the amazing thing is that, when tests where conducted, computer with XP SP3 outran Vista in speed tests. Does that mean XP is now more faster than Vista?

Well you'll have to find that yourself, because speed also depends on ur hardware. If u have a high-end system, both XP and Vista is going to run smoothly. The third service pack for Windows XP, reportedly gives the venerable OS a near 10 percent performance boost.

Still, i'm not expert in this. if you want to know more, google for it. You are going to find plenty of sites talking about XP SP3. But i can still give you the link to download them.
