Users can shoot, edit and post impressive videos directly from their iPhones.

Again as is the case with photography, users can shoot, edit and post impressive videos directly from their phones. When it comes to choosing between an iPhone and point-and-shoot camera, or a flip video, the convenience of having all of those tools in one device makes the decision a no-brainer, and in so doing, you’ll also save money from having to buy several gadgets.Did Apple's iPhone Redefine Photography?

Recently, we found our Sony point-n-shoot in the back of a cabinet. Our Sony HD camcorder hasn’t been used in almost a year.

Go Blue! every Friday

I hope fans of the University of Michigan and fellow alums don't mind that I've borrowed the Michigan Wolverines fan cheer. It's diabetes awareness month and in the spirit of "blue" - a blue ring is a colour chosen to represent diabetes awareness - I'll be writing a series of blog posts about diabetes and diabetes-related projects.

"Go Blue!" is what the fans shout when they want to show their support and encouragement to the Wolverines. It says we are fighting with you. It's what I use internally when I feel down about how diabetes has affected my health and my life. Today, and every Friday until November 14th, "Go Blue!" with your outfit to show support for people living with diabetes.

I was honoured to have the privilege of contributing a few seconds of video for the Blue Friday video created by Cherise Shockley and Diabetes Social Media Advocacy.

GLMPS for iPhone

"Discovered" this iPhone app via +Robert Scoble's Google+ feed.

So, what is GLMPS?

To the untrained eye it looks like an Instagram copycat.

But I’ve found it to be more engaging than Instagram. Why? Because in addition to shooting a photo and uploading that it records five seconds of video too.

It doesn’t sound that cool, right?

But, chase around your cat, or chase around your babies, or watch your significant other for when he or she does something goofy. Shoot the photo. What you’ll notice is that the five seconds of video ENDS with that photo.

Huh? How did it record video before you push the shutter button?
