MINDBLOWING - WATCH THIS!

Want to see the future?
Watch this. Mindblowing demo. Just watch - you get it immediately.

Regarded as the technology talk of the year at TED. The first demo is fantastic, then comes the 3D image of Notre Dame Cathedral taken from ordinary Flickr images. Also astonishing. The implications are that socially created data can be used to create something even greater. Masses of hyperlinks are used to create deeper meaning - amazing.

This lines up with Dave Snowdens' recent presentation at FOE2007, where he talked about fragmented narrative and the construction of content. Fascinating tool, and a visual representation of what can apply to knowledge, too!

Hi Donald,
It will be great to follow how this develops, hopefully creating 3d environments for multiplayer conversations.
Here's a link to a posting on the Microsoft Virtual Earth blog with links to 6 UK sites using Photosynth BBC partnered to produce with a show.
