The Reading Warehouse

With better ways to get your photos online and new options for creating printed projects, iPhoto '11 makes it easier than ever to transfer photos from a digital camera, organize them, and publish, print, or share them in maps--but there's still no printed manual for the program. Fortunately, David Pogue and Lesa Snider team up in this witty, authoritative book that should have been in the box.

• Organize your collection. Discover all of the options for grouping your pictures--by events, in albums, or based on who's in the photo or where it was taken.
• Sharpen your editing skills. Learn how to use iPhoto's beefed-up editing options, including its Photoshop-like adjustments panel.
• Share images online. Get your photos to everyone on your list by publishing them to Flickr, Facebook, and MobileMe.
• Dive into creative projects. Have fun building slideshows (with music), gift books, calendars, and cards.
