If you paid much attention to MIX 08 this year one of the keynotes showcased the SeaDragon and PhotoSynth technology, which allows for you to view photographs of differing resolutions together. It lets you zoom in, out and pan across a myriad of images that have been stitched together. The specific example given in the keynote was the Memorabilia page at the Hard Rock Cafe web site. Note that this uses Beta 1 of Silverlight 2.
I’m a big Tom Bihn fan. Their bags are very high quality and well thought out. I own one of their Brain Bags, a Freudian Slip and a Snake Charmer which I reviewed in a past blog post. On a whim I contacted them to see if they would be interested in sponsoring the Central Ohio Day of .NET since they make great laptop bags and our attendees are people who, strangely enough, use laptops on a regular basis.
