There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

FilioIt’s a problem many of us can relate to: You take a bunch of photos at an event or on a vacation and then never get around to organizing them.
A startup created by two School of Civil and Environmental Engineering graduate students aims to fix all that and make image management a snap.
Mahdi Roozbahani, now a School of Computatioanl Science and Engineering lecturer, and Fikret Atalay went live June 24 with a mobile and web app called Filio (pronounced FILL-ee-oh) that automatically tags photos with GPS coordinates and the direction the camera was pointing and allows the photographer to quickly caption the image with voice-to-text capabilities.
