New ground in mobile photo apps

Bert found these very cool photo apps (see the videos). It seems they are not for sale right now, but should be soon. One use for example is a time picture of a person in a busy street. And after taking the picture you, right on the phone, freeze the person, and just click on each to remove the other people, because the phone camera captured the background behind each over the couple seconds you "filmed", and it blends a bunch of photos into one.

I still think Apple should have called it something else than iPhone, and thus laying the ground for people seeing "smartphones" as phones. They really have little to do with a phone, the phone app is just one amongst many, and not even the best one. It's a 21st century palm computer, and way more powerful than anybody imagined in the nineties.

Dear Mr. Eolake Stobblehouse,

I am hereby contacting you, following a visit of your blog, which I find very appropriate for a publication.

I am an employee of Bloggingbooks publishing house, which is the new publishing brand of the well-established scientific publishing house, known as SVH Verlag. We are currently actively looking for new authors.

Bloggingbooks would like to broaden its publication's portfolio and in this respect, comes my question: would you have any interest in publishing your blog posts into book format?

You will find information about bloggingbooks on our homepage (bloggingbooks.net). The best way to get in touch with me will be per e-mail.

I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Thank you very much.

I am not sure, though, that my blog would be as interesting in book form. Most posts are based on links.

From your site, it does not seem that your company does the editing of a book, do you?
