Demo of Photosynth from TED conference - mind blowing

from the youtube.com dept.

This is some really awesome technology. Lots of cool stuff here, but at one point he demos a 3D metaverse created from scraped Flickr photos. Worth y of the multiple standing ovations he gets. Apparently this was bought by Microsoft about a year ago.

An oldie but goodie TED Talk. These are consistently the most engaging and interesting speeches. FYI I run a video site called Chime.TV and we created a channel just for TED Talks: http://chime.tv/tedtalks

Recent ones I've enjoyed are Erin McKean's Redifining The Dictionary ( http://chime.tv/tedtalks/3l9sg ) and Rives: Is 4AM The New Midnight? ( http://chime.tv/tedtalks/2gdlw )

And that is the answer to the old question of "When is it a good idea to plug my site?"--when you've made something people want, in that particular situation.

Thanks to this video, I discovered the main TED website: http://www.ted.com

It's a nicely constructed web site with decent resolution videos of TED talks. Just checked out Dean Kamen's prosthetic arm demo... very cool.
