Just testing to see what a post sent via email will look like on the site. We can be knowledgeable with other’s knowledge, but we cannot be wise with other’s wisdom. Michel de Montaigne Enviado desde mi BlackBerry de Movistar

Photo Tagger for Facebook Now Available to the Public

The successor to the popular Photo Finder app, Photo Tagger lets you tag all photos in an album in-bulk and automatically publish those results right to Facebook.

Photo Tagger is now out of beta and available for free. You can check out the app’s Facebook page here.

Nothing new here, really. I’ve been able to do this for some time now using Windows Live Galleries. You tag folks there and should you decide to upload those pics to your Facebook account, voilá! People are already tagged there as well.

A new chapter

Beginning with this post I will be yet again changing the use I’d been giving to this site.
From now on it will be more about my personal experience on and off line and I might even throw in a post in Spanish every now and then. To get things started let me share a photo recently taken with my BlackBerry. Hope you’ll like it. Enviado desde mi BlackBerry de Movistar

Dropico Lets You Drag And Drop Pictures Across Social Networks

Neat way of moving your pics from social network to social network (from Flickr to Facebook, for instance). When I tried it, though, my photos in Flickr took forever to load and then after dragging them to my Facebook albums, they just wouldn’t show up there anywhere. The idea is good but it seems like it needs to be refined a bit.

iPhone to Become #1 Camera on Flickr

For the longest time, the Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi has been the most widely used camera on Flickr. With a 10.1 MP Lens, an image sensor vibration cleaning system, 9-point auto focus, and a mid-range price point, it’s easy to see why the Canon camera has been so popular with the photography enthusiasts on Yahoo’s photo-sharing website.

But while Canon has dominated, there’s another camera that’s been zipping up the Flickr charts. Actually, camera phone would be more precise, because we’re talking about the iPhone.

That smartphone, with its weak 2 MP camera and its lack of zoom, is now set to overtake Canon Rebel XTi as the #1 camera on Flickr (Flickr). This is according to Flickr’s Camera Finder graphs. Actually, as the LA Times has already caught, the iPhone has already passed the Rebel XTi on a few occasions as the two duke it out for the top spot.

So what does this development mean? First, it’s a reflection of the intense popularity of mobile smartphones and specifically the rise of the iPhone. You always have a camera in your pocket (and with the 3GS, a camcorder too). Just as important is that it’s easy to upload your pictures directly from your mobile phone to your Flickr account. That’s something most digital cameras can’t do, since they aren’t connected to 3G or Wifi connections.

Facebook Gets TwitPic-Like Photo and Video Upload Features

If you have iPhone or BlackBerry, you’re used to being able to get photos and videos from your phone to Facebook fairly easily through the applications the social network has launched for each mobile platform that integrate nicely with your device’s camera.

But now, Facebook is launching a more universal way for you to get your multimedia onto the site: email. Much like TwitPic (Twitpic) and other mobile uploading applications for Twitter (Twitter), the new Facebook mobile feature assigns you a personal email address (you can find yours here) that you can email your photos to. Doing so automatically posts them to your account, using your subject line as the caption.

Photo Tagger: Tag Your Facebook Friends in Bulk

Face.com is the facial recognition service behind Photo Finder, their private alpha photo finding app for Facebook. After scanning over 1 billion photos and identifying 400 million faces, they’re ready to release a second tool into the wild.

Photo Tagger, now live, is another private alpha Facebook app using facial recognition, but this one was made with the avid photo uploader and tagger in mind. You can use the tool to scan Facebook photo albums for faces and tag your friends in bulk.

With the Photo Tagger application you can select from photo albums that belong to you or your friends, and use the app to scan the faces in each album. Once the scanning process is complete, Photo Tagger will return photos grouped by faces, some of which might already be identified by existing tags. You can then add a tag to a photo or a group of photos with the same face.

Picurio: Photo Sharing for Groups

Picurio, a Y Combinator startup from its Winter ‘09 session that makes photo sharing between large groups incredibly easy, has taken the beta label off. While there are an innumerable amount of photo sharing sites and applications out there, Picurio is focused on making photo sharing simple and user-friendly between groups of people.

Picurio’s site has a similar user interface to Apple’s iPhoto, except Picurio is on the web and cloud-based. The idea behind Picurio is that you upload photos to a “room” (which has around 2 GB of storage) where you can then create subfolders of different groups of photos and then invite as many people as you want to see the photos. In order to allow others to see the site, you send them a link, (that can be password-protected for privacy) and then they can upload photos of their own to the “room.” As a user, you can share some collections of photos with certain friends and share other rooms with a different set of friends.

5 Reasons You Can Ditch Your DSLR for an iPhone | Gadget Lab | Wired.com

iphone lenses

If you want high-quality photos, a responsive and full-featured DSLR is the only way to go. But sometimes you don’t want to carry that bulky box around with you. With a couple of accessories, and a few megabytes of applications, you can turn the iPhone in your pocket into a rather capable replacement.

I only wonder if there are any reasons why I should do away with my Point-&-Shoot in favor of Apple’s little toy-phone…
