- andybak 8y agoThanks. Now I'm sad and angry (again) about Photosynth being cancelled as well as sad and angry about Notre Dame! Microsoft canned Photosynth and seemed to make very little effort to preserve all the content.
- regularfry 8y agoThey canned it as a product, but the tech is still alive. You see echoes of it crop up in press releases every now and then.
- magduf 8y agoThis is the problem with these tech giants: they come up with cool stuff, and then abandon it because it isn't making enough money, but then they don't at least put it out there for other people to adopt. Google is especially guilty of this.
