My copy of iLife should be delivered today! I am so excited so see iWeb09 changes, I hope there is new stuff that they didn't mention on-line!
My Pimped out iWeb site (Warning some mild Artistic Nude Sketches/Paintings) http://www.starrshaw.com
The Flash files are just embeded right in I web with the HTML widget.
Since iPhoto is going to support Flickr I made the iWeb Banner and Gallery take RSS feeds from Flickr. I am hoping with iPhoto 09 that I can just do all my website updates with the new Flickr sync!
I would have done it with the moblieme RSS, but it dosn't work.
Another thing I hope they fix is all the RSS feeds, allot of readers don't like iLife ones.
Oh, I hope they also did something to help the iWeb SEO!
Please post if you find anything cool.... I have to wait 8 more hours !!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhh

I just checked my tracking and mine will be here either today or tomorrow. Question....when you install ILife 09 does it remove the previous version? I would imagine IPhoto will need to import all of the existing photo libraries. Thanks!
once loading is done, it's awesome
Once ILIFE is done looking at all your pictures that you have stored in IPHOTO, then the FACES part of the ILIFE09 will finally work. It took about 3 hours for ILIFE to read every face in every picture, you cannot escape out of this process and you probably don't want to try or else Faces will give you the full benefit.
Once it was done, it was able to pick out every face in every picture. It's funny to see who ILIFE thinks you look like, I would say there is about a 98% accuracy to the facial recognition software, maybe even 99% accuracy.
Places is awesome because it will allow you to use Google and enter any address and use that as your "place". So instead of San Francisco, CA, you can put San Francisco Moscone Center for Macworld pictures for example.
The detail is awesome.
You gotta get it.

Pre-Installed?
Hey Everyone,
It's great news that Apple is finally shipping iLife. I was wondering, I am planning on buying a new Macbook Aluminum soon, and I was just wondering when iLife '09 will start coming pre-installed on the new macbooks? Has there been any news released about this?
Thanks.

When do resellers get stock?
Amazon says Feb 20. When do other on-line retailers normally get stock after a new release? I have credits at a store I would like to use.

I would like to hear from someone who has tested the video stabilization feature in iMovie '09. Is it really as good as I've heard?
That all depends on the retail stock on hand. If you get it online though, it should come with it pre-installed since it's now available. Just to be safe, give it a week though,
I asked an Apple Sales Person today. It will come with it.

Just went to my local Apple store in Germantown, TN and they got Bupkis! I asked someone about it and she looked at me like I was an alien.
I went home and called the store and was told to call back after 2pm. So I looked up the Bestbuy store and they have them in stock!
Apple! What gives?

Delivered today and installed. The entire suite has become more bloated iPhoto now commands a whopping 310+MB
310MB's for iPhoto isn't that bad when you consider all the technologies that are now built into it. 310MB's is quite light..
Best Buy coupon...
For those that have a Best Buy nearby (and don't mind buying it from there) here's a printable 10% coupon that worked for me today at the store.

Same here.
Ordered the iLife ´09 2 days ago (via the webaddress that they provided) as I realized that I was entitled for the update. Arrived today from germany,so quick shipping from apple.
Importing pics to iPhoto now,have to fiddle around with it later.
Fair point. Speaking of iPhoto, face recognition is very much in its infancy. Im pretty much doing all the tagging and 'recognition' and its getting tiresome
What and where are you studying? My girlfriend is a grad student at Kingston Uni, and all she got was a paltry 10% off from the apple store...
