how to create your own photosynth

Photosynth
is publicly available
and it's time to give it a try and play with the technology.
Before starting you should be aware of some facts about the public photosynth technology-preview:

  1. all synths are uploaded and only available online (broadband needed)
  2. all synths are public, everyone can access them
  3. the synther tool runs only on Windows
  4. you'll need a Live ID

When everything is checked you can go and upload up to 20 Gbytes of image data - my
test synth takes up 200 Mbytes of the available space - so you have plenty of space
to play with.

Photosynth is open for the public

Believe it or not - it's been 2
years since I first wrote about Photosynth technology.
Today Microsoft made it
available to the public. It's not a tool (yet) - like I wanted - right now but it's
built into this website - so you have to upload your pictures, they are processed
and then you can browse on this website... well it's a start for a really great technology.

The Windows 7 Team

read the MSDN Forums with a cool client interface

I often read in the MSDN Forums but I will read more often because now there's a client

application available:

"After many months of hard work we are proud to announce the availability of our

first CTP of the Microsoft Forums Client. Much of the work for this CTP is in foundational

code that will let us build the rest of the application, but we hope that this first

preview will let you see what direction we're heading in, and also give you a chance

to give us feedback!

Things that work in this CTP:

Things that work in this CTP:

  • Getting the list of available forums

  • Subscribing to forums you're interested in

  • Manually (by right click menu) synchronizing the Question and General Discussion
    threads in a forum

the Visual OpenType Layout Tool

If sometimes you need to just create your own font... well maybe that's a bit too
much theoretical - but it's interesting to play with a tool like VOLT. It's out now
in a new Version and I suggest taking a look:

"The Microsoft Visual OpenType Layout Tool provides an easy-to-use graphical user
interface to add OpenType layout tables to fonts with TrueType outlines. It is licensed
free and can be downloaded from the online community set up for it. The community
hosts an active discussion forum, version history information, a wish-list and related
downloads. Links to VOLT's release notes, as well as tips and tutorials are also posted."
