NexGen Web Photo Collections -Organize, Visualize & Navigate in 3-D

"What if your photo collection was an entry point to the world, like a wormhole that you could zoom through and explore..."

Using photos of the world's natural and human wonders like Notre Dame and ancient Mayan ruins scraped from around the Web, Photosynth creates breathtaking multidimensional spaces with zoom and navigation features that showcase the future of the Web. Its creator, Microsoft's Blaise Aguera y Arcas, takes us on a mind-blowing tour, diving into a freefall, racing over wild rivers and mountains, and watch as a speck becomes a gargoyle.
