As a photographer I learned a long time ago that this is one of those
hobbies or careers that there will always be something new to buy! No
photographer that I know of has everything they want. However, sometimes
it’s just not cost effective to actually “own” certain equipment. For
example, there are lenses that I use every day and some that I would
only use rarely. It’s those rarely used lenses that are usually the most
expensive. So why have all that money lying around? I discovered
LensProToGo.com a couple of years ago and I use them whenever there’s a
lens that I want to try before I buy or use for a special occasion. I’ve
had nothing but success with their shipments and returns. Before I
bought my I rented it first from LensProToGo.com.

google Releases their g+ for ipad updates
As promised and long overdue, Google has just released their update to their Google+ iOS App with native iPad support (yay!). I rarely used Google+ on my iPad because I didn’t like the mobile browser experience or using the small iPhone sized App. Now I can experience most of Google+ in all its glory with a native iPad App. I say most, because like so many social networking Apps they lack features that the main website has (why is that?). However, with the new App you can browse your Circles, upload photos, make posts, tap to +1 something and manage Circle memberships. You can even do Google Hangouts complete with video and audio using your iPad 2 or higher. They also did a nice job with a sideways navigation in landscape mode.
Garagesale HD let you prepare ebay on your ipad
Garagesale HD eases the pain of creating ebay on your ipad
There seems to be no shortage of uses for the iPad. Many deem it to be a content consumption device more than a content creation device and I typically agree. However, I’m finding myself doing more creating with it than I did two years ago. This is due largely in part to the increase in really great iPad Apps. Yesterday I finally got around to putting some items on eBay that I’d been wanting to sell for a while. Rather than set these auctions up on my Mac, I decided to see if I could do the whole process on the iPad and the answer was YES! On the Mac I use an application from Iwascoding called GarageSale. They released an iPad version and although I bought it a while ago, I never really used it to do an auction. I was always gun shy that I would run into some limitation and end up completing the process on my computer. Since I had a little more time than usual, I decided to try it.

Phone 5 redesign says analyst, adds monstrous release date
If one analyst and rumors are to be believed, the iPhone 5 is expected to feature a new design and almost all current iPhone owners might upgrade.
Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Münster is back in headlines after talking about the next Apple smartphone, the iPhone 5, and his new note is related to the impressive sales of the iPhone 4S, the first dual-core Apple phone.
According to the analyst, he is increasing his projected iPhone sales last quarter, with the additional 4 million and with the total of 30 million due to strong demand for smartphones. The iPhone 4S was launched in the United States, United Kingdom and other countries last October, and new countries were added last year and also this month, including the latest and possibly biggest smartphone market in Asia, China.
But the biggest story is Münster’s new statement about the iPhone 5, the 2012 iPhone that is rumored to get a release date of June or October, depending on who you ask. Munster is claiming that the iPhone 5 will feature a new design, and apparently, rumors circulating online, even the older rumors posted last year, also say that the iPhone 5 is expected to avoid the old but totally beautiful iPhone 4 design.
Münster is predicting that 94 percent of the current iPhone owners will upgrade to the iPhone 5 because of the new design and the release date of the phone is the start of the “monster upgrade.” Long lines and record-breaking pre-orders? Well, that’s highly possible especially if the design can beat the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4Ss.
It is worth noting that the iPhone 5 may also be the first Apple smartphone that will feature the largest screen while maintaing the critical iPhone feature, the “one-hand,” rumors say.

How Will Teachers Pay For Apple's New iBooks?
The single biggest question surrounding Apple’s Thursday announcement of its new iBooks textbooks is how teachers and schools will be able to buy enough iPads to make the initiative a success. After all, interactive, touch-friendly iPad books will only benefit students if schools can afford to make iPads widely available. While the new books will be much cheaper than regular textbooks, iPad prices remain $499 to $829, depending on connectivity options and amount of storage.
Apple's new iBooks 2 textbooks are touch-friendly and interactive -- but require an iPad. Teachers and schools may need to raise money for the devices themselves.
One way to help bridge the gap: nonprofits like DonorsChoose.org, which matches donors with teachers in need of supplies. The New York-based organization is already predicting a spike in teacher requests for iPads following Thursday’s news. Such a surge is “certain” to happen, said DonorsChoose.org Founder and Chief Executive Charles Best in an interview.

Apple devices are already in great demand at DonorsChoose.org, which lets U.S. public school teachers list classroom projects and needed resources on its site. Donors can browse the project summaries online and make contributions via credit card or PayPal. The donations are aggregated until the requested amount is raised. At that point, DonorsChoose.org steps in to buy the classroom materials. The items are shipped directly to the appropriate school.
On the DonorsChoose.org website, there are currently 439 listings that include iPads and iPad accessories. One typical example: a first-grade teacher in Little Rock, Ark. who wants an iPad 2 for “independent practice in reading, writing, and math [and] whole group instruction.”
“Many of my students do not have a home computer,” the teacher notes in her proposal. “[An iPad 2] will prepare them for a future of using technology.”
Such listings are proliferating on DonorsChoose.org. During the 2009-2010 school year, Apple products made up $50,000 or 0.2% of all the classroom supplies DonorsChoose.org purchased on behalf of its registered teachers, said Best.
The following year, that amount increased 16 times. During the 2010-2011 school year, Apple products made up $800,000 or 3.2% of all the classroom supplies DonorsChoose.org purchased.
Best attributes the huge year-over-year boost in Apple device requests and fulfillments to the April 2010 launch of the original iPad. (DonorsChoose.org measures school years from July 1 to June 30.) The organization is currently in the middle of its 2011-2012 school year but already sees that figure rising. So far, Apple products make up 3.3% of DonorsChoose.org’s 2011-2012 classroom orders, according to Best.
Some of those products were other Apple devices, such as iPod touches and MacBook laptops but Best said the majority were iPads. “A really large number of teachers contact us offline testifying how valuable iPads are for their students,” he said. Teachers of special-needs classes have particularly found the iPad’s touchscreen and easy-to-use software makes a “monumental difference” in their students’ education, he added.
There’s a lot more teacher interest in iPads than DonorsChoose.org’s statistics indicate. The site requires teachers to be proactive about listing their projects and communicating with donors. That number is growing but is far from including the majority of teachers. Best said about half of all U.S. public schools have at least one teacher who has posted a project on DonorsChoose.org since the site went live in 2000.

Create Hollywood Special Effects on your iPhone with Action Movie FX
By now you've probably seen the movie Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol or at least the trailer. In one of the scenes Tom Cruise seeming barely escapes death by a flying car that crashes to the ground right behind him. We all know that these effects are often done with green screen and CGI, but what if you could do these kind of effects right on your iPhone with a few taps of your finger. That's exactly what Action Movie FX allows you to do. You fire up the App, choose your effect, record your scene in the App and then choose where in your clip's timeline you want the effect to happen. Tap a button to process the video and you're done! The saved movie will be 720p resolution even on an iPhone 4s that can record in 1080p.
I was blown away by the quality of the overlay considering that I had to do absolutely no keying on my own. What's even more amazing is that the App is FREE! Once you have your processed video you can save it to your Camera Roll, Send it via email or post it on Facebook right from the App. Of course once it's on your Camera Roll you can upload it to just about any other service or App such as YouTube. The App comes with three scenes, "Missile Attack", "Car Smash" and "Demolition Rock". There is an option to do an in-app purchase to buy more effects. However, to date I've not been able to get the store to load in the App. Once it does I'll gladly buy some more effects at $0.99 each.
UPDATE: The FX store finally loaded in the App and there are 4 more "2 Packs" of effects to choose from (8 total effects) at $0.99 per 2 pack.
