This is a new technology for viewing images and data, that is being developed (acquired in Feb, 2007) by Microsoft. It’s called Seadragon. Basically this software allows you to view large number of images and data, without slowing down your computer. We are talking about hundreds of thousands of images (think flickr), some of which are hundreds of megabytes or even gigabytes in size. The size of the image does not affect the PC performance, you can easily zoom in and out and view hundreds of images at the same time.
ACDSee and Google Picasa should start worrying now ;) Because when this will be out, it will change the way we interact with images. watch the demo here
