Remember that leaked tutorial video with (an assumed) second version of the Lightroom beta? It seems the rumors were true, as Adobe has officially released Lightroom public beta 2, and you can pick it up from the Adobe Labs site - curiously hosted at labs.macromedia.com.
Domain naming issues aside, the latest Lightroom beta still only runs on a Mac, although it now runs on both PPC and Intel version of Mac OS X (Windows support is still forthcoming). Updates in this version include, but are not limited to: crop and straighten tools included in the Develop module, ability to add music to slideshows, more camera support, Ability to create hierarchical keyword sets, and more. In fact, PhotoshopNews, where I found this, has already delved into the new beta with a whole slew of screenshots and briefs on new features. Head on over and check out their rundown, and don't forget to pick up your own free copy.
