Live as History Happens
CNN’s PhotoSynth
CNN is getting its viewers involved in cataloging a historic moment in American History. On January 20th, viewers will be able to email photos to CNN, which will in turn will import those photos to Microsoft’s PhotoSynth application, to render (hopefully) a true to life 3D model of Washington DC as the festivities unfold.
At 12pm EST, the Moment will happen. President-Elect Barack Obama will shed the ‘elect’ from his name as he places his hand on the Bible and takes the presidential oath of office. And we will get to see that moment in unprecidented HD coverage, via the news networks on tv and this year, online, and even on your iPhone.
Common, if this makes Wolf Blitzer giddy, it’s gotta be big.
