ShindoTV’s 12seconds

I haven’t used 12seconds much until last night, where I got a little too carried away hanging out with Melodie and Jennifer at Lestat’s. I’ve included a couple of moments of sheer dorkiness, of course.

Live from Lestat’s (featuring Melodie and Jennifer):

CameraBag for iPhone

You can’t always say you get what you pay for with iPhone apps. Some of the best ones are free while some of the paid apps are utter FAIL (such as allRadio). Given that, I paid $2.99 for the CameraBag, and I wasn’t disappointed at all.

The iPhone’s default camera application is simply point and click. There isn’t much one can do with the “camera” besides have a steady hand and shoot. With CameraBag, that part is still true, but there are several options to manipulate the image for a “vintage” effect.

Here are some examples of the effects offered by CameraBag:

Jaylen in cardigan
Jaylen in “Lolo.”

Amber and Julie infrared
Amber and Julie in “infrared.”

Amber in vintage photo
Amber in “1974″

Sharon and Brian B&W
Sharon and Brian in “1962″

Obama, Endorsed by ShindoTV

If he’s good enough for Senator Hillary Clinton and former Secretary of State Colin Powell (and scores upon scores upon scores… of people), Barack Obama is good enough for ShindoTV.

I don’t know what to make of “Obama is my bicycle,” but I’ve Obamafied my iPhone with his app, which is absolutely fabulous.

However, a presidential candidate gracing my iPhone is not enough. My birthday’s coming up, and I want a good birthday. Actually, four years better than the last eight would even be better. Change is no longer a buzzword. It is imperative.

Vote for Barack Obama for President this November 4.
