iPhoto '09

My friend Garrett just sent me a copy of the new iPhoto '09 and it is SO AMAZING.

The coolest feature is the face recognition feature.

You go through and tag a few pictures of your friends, and the more you tag, the more it learns so that eventually it builds a database of faces and then just gives you a list of suggestions that it thinks are correct.



Sometimes it screws up a little before it has learned a face...



But for the most part it is frickin' BRILLIANT.

It can even tell the difference between different Asians!!!!



I have no idea how they do it!

If you know anything about me and how obsessed I am with photographs and cataloging everything, then you are not surprised that I will probably spend the next 29 hours teaching it.

It's seewwwwwww fun!
