iPhoto ’11, the popular photograph software for Apple’s OS got a major upgrade today and is available on the Mac App Store hot on the heels of today’s Lion upgrade and iOS 5 public launch.
Version 9.2 of iPhoto includes support for iCloud and iOS 5 and is more stable, Apple says.
Photo Stream, the new iCloud photo sharing feature from Apple, which places any photo taken onto any device, now includes placing your photo onto the iPhoto desktop app. No more syncing with wires or emailing pictures to yourself, it just works.
