Photosynth!

Microsoft labs just released a really cool concept called Photosynth, which basically stitches a bunch of photos together into a 3D type image. You can check out the reference ones they've done at their site (here). I went ahead and stitched together some of my Macchu Picchu pictures (which you can see below, or click here to see it on the Photosynth site). The synth wasn't great (apparently only 24% synthy, or 24% matchability), but it's pretty cool none-the-less. Now that I know how Photosynth works (they have a video guide here if you want to try your own), I can take pictures of the cool places we go that will be "synthable."
