These sites that caught our eye between June 7th and June 11th:

• Microsoft Live Labs: Photosynth - In our collections, you can access gigabytes of photos in seconds, view a scene from nearly any angle, find similar photos with a single click, and zoom in to make the smallest detail as big as your monitor.
• Photo Tourism - Photo tourism is a system for browsing large collections of photographs in 3D. Our approach takes as input large collections of images from either personal photo collections or Internet photo sharing sites, and automatically computes each photo’s viewpoint.
• GFC: Tasting Menus - Whether you call them Tasting Menus, Chef’s Menus, Omakase, Prix Fixe, Kitchen Tables, Wine Dinners, or even just combo meals, they all share a common thread - you must give up at least some control over what you’re going to eat.
• Bungalow23 » Cool Tool: Hinge Shims - Quick Align Hinge Shim by EZ-Shim. The shims are sized perfectly for door hinges and have cut outs for the hinge screws, including a slot for the center screw that allows the hinge to remain attached to the casing as you place the shims. [via Bungalow23]
• Hewn and Hammered - Highly informative blog covering all aspects of the Arts & Crafts movement, with links to photo collections on flickr.
