Panedia is awesome.
thanks for the heads up duncan!

compared to things like “GigaPan” and other “panorama” websites, Panedia is leagues ahead….
the panedia website is so well designed and the pictures are brilliant. it just seems so professional compared to all those other cheap looking websites.
i hope they do really well and can expand all over the world.

The brilliant and emersive panoramas have sparked sparked nostalgia within me. I used to live in Sydney and I have not had such a vivid recollection of what that was like since being there.

Panedia is cool but the player to watch in this space is GigaPan.

–It offers Gigapixel panoramas (giga as in a billion pixels).
–Viewers can zoom-in anywhere they choose, not just the “hotspots” chosen for them.
–You can embed the images, and/or use as wallpaper free
–Its sponsored by Google, Carnegie Mellon University and the NASA/Ames Intelligent Robotics Group.
–its open source
–and there already is a “gigapixel layer” in Google Earth

(note: check out the cosmic map… oh yeah, its incredible with art projects)

I wonder whether Google will provide 360 degree photo in Google Maps in near future.

awesome stuff..not-so-great thing about such content sites is the scalability part…very niche content doesn’t really scale and that’s where UGC based Flickr chips in.

A good portal to watch out for..

Thanks for coupon though!

Um… so is it panedia, or pandedia? The Crunchbase information seems incorrect…
