Photosynth and Virtual Earth
The PhotoSynth project is getting a lot more interesting and a consumer versions is already available and this will allow us to place our own images in a way that see can “travel to places as if we were there” and get a 360º view that is generated with the photos submitted by the users. This seems to me a very good idea and I thought that I would like to see this integrated with Virtual Earth and that’s what I did and made available here (The pins mark the places where photosynth information exists, and by placing the mouse on top of them will allow you to see the photosynth elements) in order to get to know what we can expect in a while. Of course this is a mashup now, but a huge power will came with the integration of both, don’t you agree?
