Blurity! is here.  Image processing technology once limited to academics and scientists has been brought to the masses.

Have a blurry photo?  Upload it, select the spot that should have been clear, and let the service do the rest.

Ok, enough of the marketing talk.

Here’s the deal: I’m launching Blurity! today, very quietly.  The site is super-ugly, the image processing is slow, and the underlying processing algorithms could use a serious boost in quality.  Lots of bugs too, I’m sure.  In short, it’s a very early prototype.

Why release now instead of holding out for a more refined product?  Simple: release early, release often.  I’m pretty sure that most of what I have in place will end up changing, so it doesn’t make a lot of sense putting the polish on something that is in such severe flux.  In addition, people seem more amenable to providing useful feedback on something that doesn’t appear to be finished.

So there it is.  Give it a try.  I’d love to hear what’s good and what’s bad, what you like and what you don’t like, what’s clear and what’s ambiguous.  If you find it useful, so much the better!  If not, give it a few releases and watch the quality improve.

Tell me what you think, either in the comments or by email (jeff.keacher(at)nesota(dot)com), and leave a way to get in contact with you, and I’ll send you a coupon code for a free image processing credit.

Blur is dead!
