Joe,

Just a clarification and full disclosure:
Synths are still only *calculated* in Windows, but you should be able to *view* a whole world of synths now.

http://photosynth.net/geoexplore.aspx

As always, there’s Boot Camp, Parallels, or VMWare Fusion if you’re dying to create a few.

I just wanted to point out that the path-finding work has finally begun to be integrated into Photosynth.

Since 2009 April 21, when you use the Highlights list (on the right hand side of any photosynth whose author has added highlights) you will be flown along a path calculated through any photos between your current position in the synth and the highlight you have just selected, just as shown in the Photo Tourism work above.

Also of note is that this new feature coincides with the switch to the Photosynth viewer being written in Silverlight 2.0 which means that all synths should be viewable on all Intel Macs. If all goes well with Moonlight, Linux users will be able to view synths by September 2009.
