This is just too cool!!

Seeing new technology has always amazed me and this is certainly no exception. Here is a video demo of a multi-touch large format display that is fully interactive as you work. You can access tools and settings right on screen with the touch of your hand. It does however, seem to be a little slow and not quite as fluid as you would hope, but it sure is promising. Couple more years development and it will be the next best thing. At any rate, watching the demo is pretty darn cool! Check it out here.

Adding Keywords to Multiple files

In Bridge, you can add keywords to images to make searching for pictures a little less cumbersome. You don’t, however, want the process to become tedious as well. By either Command-clicking (PC: Ctrl-clicking) or Shift-clicking on images, you can select multiple files inside Bridge. Once you have the files selected, you can go to the Keywords panel and turn on any keyword you like. This will apply the keyword to all of the files that you have selected. It takes away a little bit of the pain of categorization, but just a little.
