Editors' Pick: Adobe Photoshop Album
Adobe Systems Inc. has released Adobe Photoshop Album ($49), a new application for Windows-based computers that extends Photoshop uses. It solves one of the biggest problems for digital camera owners: how to easily find, fix, share and preserve thousands of photos accumulating on their computers. The program uses a "tagging" system to organize and find images, and leverages Photoshop's image enhancement technology to provide simple, high-quality, one-click editing. Photoshop Album also gathers thousands of digital photos for viewing in the "Photo Well" and automatically organizes them by date. From there, a timeline view displays photos taken over a set period, while a calendar view shows the day and month when each photo was captured. Adobe Systems Inc., www.adobe.com.
