Interesting site:

http://gigapan.org/

You can zoom in on anyone in a crowd of several thousand people, close enough to clearly see their face.

You seriously must have a broadband connection to access the site.

Here is an image of Obama's inauguration speech:

At what point did Denzel Washington become so important that he gets to stand centre that close to the front of the audience at an inauguration?

It took me awhile but I nailed it....Waldo is in the right middle right in the crowd. I didn't know he was african-american though but he has the cap! Give me another one!

This is not new technology. It's been in use for "security reasons" at Superbowl games, police surveillance, Big Brother...

True, but when was the last time someone posted a link to that website, eh?

May not be new technology, but this is a new post! :D
