Originally called “Live Drive” and widely anticipated, Live Folders is getting off the ground before the rumored GDrive. Here’s some before and after of the photo stitching: Although photo stitch isn’t powered by recently acquired Photosynth, the team will be integrating the companies Seadragon technology into the program in the future. Live Photo Gallery did an excellent job of nearly seamlessly stitching the photos into one continuous strand even though they were taken from different vantage points. The Microsoft team demoed the feature for me by snapping some photos of the San Francisco skyline as they walked around their hotel’s patio. The cool new feature for this release however, is photo stitch, which sews together multiple photos into a panorama. All the galleries will be available on your phone through your browser. Microsoft is planning to implement a service that will enable users to securely grant access to their photos for third party sites to use. Uploaded photos will eventually be linked to the ones on your desktop, allowing changes to tags, albums, and eventually photo captions to be synced with one another.

You can even edit the photos into a video slide show using Microsoft Movie Maker (WMV MPG AVI). Editing features include brightness/contrast, cropping, color control, and red eye reduction. Photos are organized by a familiar file tree structure by folder, date, tag, or album.

Photo Gallery is a free program that lets you easily download photos from your camera, organize, edit, and upload them to your Spaces account.

Windows Live Photo Gallery beta is an improvement on the initial version of Photo Gallery they shipped with Windows Vista now made for XP as well. Tonight Microsoft has announced two more steps toward beefing up the Live Suite: Windows Live Photo Gallery Beta and Windows Live Folders Beta. The biggest piece to fall in place recently was the replacements for Hotmail and Outlook Express, the Windows Live Mail desktop and web client, which also featured Messenger integration.Įventually Microsoft plans to release all the pieces of the Live Suite as a single upgradeable download as well as separate programs and services. Ever since Microsoft launched Live Search last year, they’ve been keeping a steady pace of new services integrations as they grow the Live Suite, specifically integration between interfaces for mobile, desktop, and web, as well as between the users themselves via Live Spaces.
