Microsoft Photosynth Rocks!

Photosynth is an amazing new technology from Microsoft Live Labs that will change forever the way you think about digital photos.

Our software takes a large collection of photos of a place or an object, analyzes them for similarities, and displays them in a reconstructed three-dimensional space.
With Photosynth you can:

• Walk or fly through a scene to see photos from any angle.
• Seamlessly zoom in or out of a photo whether it's megapixels or gigapixels in size.
• See where pictures were taken in relation to one another.
• Find similar photos to the one you're currently viewing.
• Send a collection - or a particular view of one - to a friend.

By the way, this is a Spoof:

Macworld Boston 1997-The Microsoft Deal

It's really weird how years can change people really much, in 1997 Microsoft Saved Apple's ass by buying $150 millions worth of shares (non-voting shares and MS agreed not to sell them for at least 3 years) in Apple to save its ass and save Steve from bankruptcy, and at that time Steve Jobs was very kind, and he said Microsoft is our friends, our partners, bla bla bla.

And after 10 years and when he came back by the help of Microsoft, he doesn't leave any moment without making fun of Microsoft and Windows!!

Really people are so bad, I am just putting this video as a quick reminder:

Free Software, How?!

It has been long time since I posted anything which has a lot of debate in the background, any way today I'll talk about the concept of Free Software (I am not talking about Open Source, the title is really obvious, it's about FREE SOFTWARE).

So now here you are what I am thinking, every single profession in the whole world is for money, Doctors earn money from sick people, mechanical engineers earn money from people who owns any mechanical equipments, plumbers earn money from people who need plumping, even Hookers gain money from people seeking pleasure, so as you see every freaken profession on the planet earn money from servicing people who need this profession's services, so why the hell software must be different?!!!

What's the different between someone who spends 8 hours a day writing code and someone else who spends 8 hours a day making sex for money?!!

What?! A hooker makes more efforts?!

How do people measure it here?! How do they think?!! In my opinion, if there's a service which need to be free, it will me medical services because this is something that no one can live without it, but in software it's different, software is luxury, it's either for business or entertainment, so it doesn't make any freaken sense for someone to spend 6 months working day and night for free for someone else to use his efforts to gain money, or for someone to use this software when he gets bored (i.e. computer game), so why a service which is a primary need for any human costs money and a luxury service like software needs to be for free?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


So now this is my $1,000,000 question for people who believes that software should be free:

How should software developers earn money?!!


I think I've some answers:

1- They should work on this in their spare time->whoever says this is an idiot because if this is the case, we'd return again into Stone Age.
2- They shouldn't seek money, they are doing this for mankind->Whoever say this is even more idiot that saying #1, I could accept this when I get medical services for free (in any time I should go to any doctor and do whatever I want for free), plumping services for free (in any time I should get a plumper to do whatever I want for free), hookers services for free (in any time I should get a hooker to do whatever I want for free), when all these services become free then we can accept that developers should work for mankind only!

You're more than welcome to give me any other reasons because I can't really understand the concept behind this strange wave!!!!

Why they chose Windows over Linux 3?
