We’re Apple. We don’t wear suits.
I’m a huge believer that you should always have a camera with you, because you never know when you’ll want to use it. That’s why I’m not an SLR guy, and prefer little Canon pocket-sized cameras. But, I just got an iPhone 4 and its built-in camera absolutely deserves all of the hype its been getting! It’s so great to have a capable camera in the phone (which, let’s be honest, hardly ever leaves my side) that can really take some great shots.
This photo was a quick snapshot with my iPhone, edited in the Camera+ app, and then uploaded directly to Tumblr — all from the phone!
Tumblr got love today from TechCrunch, and for good reason: it now has over 1.5 BILLION page views per month. I’ve been a happy Tumblr(er?) for almost two years now, and consider it to be by far the best platform out there. It’s simple, slick and easily customizable. The best part, though, is the great community bolstered by Tumblr’s features that promote sharing and interaction.
How about you, why do you choose Tumblr?
The iPad isn’t just magical and revolutionary, it’s also magisches und revolutionaeres!
Check out the latest episode of the AshokaTECH Podcast where Marc Maxson of GlobalGiving and I discuss storytelling in Kenya, “Beer for Data” in Afghanistan and the latest trends in monitoring and evaluating non-profits. You can also download the podcast in iTunes (Link opens iTunes).
Not only was Leo Laporte — founder of the TWiT Network, and host of “The Tech Guy” radio show — kind enough to join me for the AshokaTECH Podcast, he also livestreamed our chat. Thanks to one of Leo’s amazing fans, the video from our interview was also recorded.
I spend hours per week commuting and at the gym listening to Leo’s podcasts so to be able to speak with him was a huge honor. In this interview we discuss how technology is giving people everywhere a voice, and the transition from being passive media consumers to content creators.
If you want to download the audio episode of the podcast, check out the AshokaTECH Podcast page in iTunes or the Official AshokaTECH Podcast Site. The video stream is below:
