Photosynth IS COOL!
Photosynth
This is totally awesome! Photosynth allows you to see a “stitched” view of the world. The website takes still photos of the world. They take insects, museums, and just about anything that you want to look at and puts it in an interactive web environment. It is very similar to Google Maps. You can click on an image and it will link you to another image that follows.
You can also be a contributor to the website. You need to install some software to your PC and then you can start stitching the world together.
I can see this being used in the classroom by students who just took a field trip. Often as a teacher I refer back to the trip to teach. “Remember when we saw,” can now be accompanied by a realistic trip back to the location of the trip.
