Adobe working on content-aware fill tool for Photoshop
In the demo video, you can see how content-aware spot healing makes things like removing wires from a photo a whole lot easier, but there's also a new version of the fill tool for larger areas. You can use it to scrub out entire trees and big chunks of scenery, and the result seem pretty plausible.
When is this magical new feature coming to Photoshop? Maybe not ever, according to Nack's disclaimer, but it looks far enough along that I wouldn't be totally surprised to see it in the next major version.
So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place.

Theres no such thing as a peak in software technology. Given enough processing power and data storage, anything that can be described in an algorithm can be solved

Neat. Too bad I've already abandoned Adobe for everything save watching YouTube and Homestar Runner. Their products are bloated, poorly designed, incredibly buggy and unstable, and highly antiquated when compared to the high-quality alternatives that have sprung up over the past couple of years (on the Mac side of the fence, anyway... is there a Windows alternative to Photoshop besides GIMP and Paint.NET?). After using Pixelmator and DrawIt for 15 minutes, I'll never go back to Photoshop again.
