Apple keynote at Macworld 2009 – iLife
Apple and your life, I mean iLife
iLife: Do more with photos, movies & music”
Apple announced updates to their iLife software at Macworld.
iPhoto 09
You can now organise your photos by faces and places based on who appears in them and where they were taken.
-> Sort by Faces
Like Facebook tagging, add names to your photos. iPhoto now has face recognition, so it will search your photo database for the same face and add name tags to those photos. You confirm that they’re correct.
-> Sort by Places – Geotag mapping
Works if your camera or smartphone (or um iPhone) has the ability to GPS geotag where your photos are taken. Otherwise you can click on an event, add a name/location.
-> Built in Facebook and Flickr support
If you upload a photo to Facebook and tag it (or others tag it), that gets synced back to iPhoto. With Flickr, the geotags can be shared with your Flickr friends.
Garageband
New features, including learn to play guitar and piano tutorials. You can even purchase separate lessons done by artists – where they teach you to play some of their famous songs.
Purchase iLife 09
iLife 09 is available now for full purchase or upgrade from Apple online.
