Amanda Knox Verdict in Pictures

Jeremy Muncy — Mon, 03 Oct 2011 21:15:55 +0000

Earlier the murder conviction of Amanda Knox was overturned. Knox, 24, collapsed in tears after the jury declared that the evidence against her was not reliable. She was taken back to prison where she will be formally freed.

Leading up to the reading, you could see that Knox was anxiously awaiting the official word from the jury. You saw her breathing quite heavily and bring her hands up to her face several times. At one point her lawyer leaned in and was talking with Knox, it looked as though she could be sick at any moment.

Below are some powerful images from the verdict reading:

Google Shows Off New Face Movies Feature in Latest Picasa Release

Chris Crum — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 22:10:20 +0000

Google launched a new version of Picasa today. It comes with several new features, but a cool facial recognition feature for slideshows is sure to get the most attention, and is certainly the one Google is putting front and center. It’s called "Face Movies".

"Face movies create a movie based around one person both figuratively and literally," explains Google’s Jonathan Sposato. "Instead of the usual transition from one photo to the next, the images align themselves to the face in the photo. This creates an extremely smooth viewing experience which allows the person in the photos to remain the focus rather than the transition effects themselves.

See below:

There is no word on when this feature will make its way to Picasa Web Albums, but hopefully it will at some point.

Other features of Picasa 3.8 include Picnik integration (which was released for Picasa Web Albums recently), batch upload from Picasa to Picasa Web Albums, and some metadata updates.

Photos From SES San Jose

Unfortunately, I didn’t arrive in San Jose until after 6pm–so I missed all of day one. However, I did make it to the Internet Marketer’s Charity Party, which was a huge success.

I’ve posted a few photos from the event to my Flickr account. Here are a sample:

I’ll have more photos from Day 2, later today.

If you’re looking for a re-cap of day one’s panels, then I suggest you take a look here and here.

Photoshop Express allows users to store up to 2GB of images online for free, make edits to their photos, and share them online, including downloading and uploading photos from popular social networking sites like Facebook, Picasa and Photobucket to start with. More integration with other online Digital Photo Destinations are expected in future.
