Unofficial Mac Genius
MacNN.com is reporting that Apple has quietly released iPhoto 1.1.

They offer this link to the download.

What's new in iPhoto 1.1
With iPhoto 1.1, you can

• email your photos using Apple Mail
• adjust brightness and contrast to improve the appearance of your photo
• retain and display EXIF data (image and camera information about each photo)
• automatically create an album by dragging a folder of photos into the Photo Library list
• import directly from a Photo CD or Picture CD
• import a group of photos as separate film rolls by dragging a folder with subfolders into the photo viewing area
• set your desktop image from within iPhoto
• set your screen saver from within iPhoto

UPDATE: Yes, indeed, that link gives you iPhoto 1.1. And I'm very impressed with this update. The desktop picture, screen saver, and mail "share" options are seemless. The desktop picture update is instantaneous, and the screen saver thing is too – very nice. In addition, the mail "share" option is very nifty – it allows you to set the size of the image so that the both the file size and the image is smaller, and automatically composes an e-mail with the picture in it and the title as the subject. Very nice.

One problem my grampa and I had with iPhoto 1.0 was that it wasn't using the data from the pictures that tells the date they were taken. Supposedly, from the release notes, this data will now be preserved, so I hope that we can now organize them by actual date of taking the picture. I e-mailed him about iPhoto 1.1, and I'll see what he says about it.
 
Also up on versiontracker. I'm downloading now. I can't wait. Getting a Kodak DX3500 and the release of iPhoto are what got me to switch to OSX full time. Love it love it love it!
