TED2007 - Blaise Aguera y Arcas, of Microsoft Live Labs, offers a stunning live presentation of Photosynth based on and used in conjunction with Seadragon technology, which Aguera y Arcas was a key architect.
I won't lie, the tech side of this whole thing makes me a little dizzy, but I'll try to nutshell it.

The BAPLA Picture Buyers Fair is the largest event of it's kind anywhere. This is the seventh year of the Fair and on May 9th and 10th vendors and buyers from all over the planet will congregate in London for this two-day conference, to buy and sell stock imagery.
Contests and raffles abound at these things and this year exhibitors are giving away everything from iPods to Madagascar vacations and even a VW. Plus there will be no end to the schwag giveaways I'm sure.
While I hear it's a killer show, I have yet to actually make the pilgrimage to BAPLA and unfortunately I don't get to go to London this year either. I will, however, see you at HOW in Atlanta, June 10th.
