The press is working with
Microsoft's Photosynth to build a bunch of 3-D images of
Obama's inauguration. Usually this stuff is pretty gimmicky, but I'm actually impressed... the images look good, and they've been cooking them up pretty quickly. Plus I've been looking for an excuse to post something today to mark the occasion, and this is the first/best item I came across. Deal with it.
CNN.com is using viewer's images to generate their version.
MSNBC.com seems to have one ready-made. And even though you need to download Microsoft's
Silverlight software to make it work, the technology is pretty cool. Not
Jaws 3-D cool, mind you, but pretty good for 24-hour news. Check it out.
