Four weather forecasts from the iPhone this evening, with the captions recording the spread of temperature forecasts for Tuesday, 23rd April, 2013.

(Side note- can you spot which of them, besides the obvious Google weather forecast, is a web app not a native one?)

All Things Digital on Koozoo:
The San Francisco-based company wants people to contribute their own live video feeds from wherever they are, in order to knit together a network that shows what traffic patterns are like, if a parking spot is available on that block, and whether that park is crowded today.

Four photos from Ryan Lewis, who posts to Instagram under the account name urbanglitch. From his submission to Year of the Glitch:

I have been using the panoramic feature on my iPhone as a tool to create stretched images for a few months.

I wanted my process to be something that I physically had to work at and not just pressing buttons.

Each time I do a panoramic, I have to decide the optimal distance for the shot and path that the subject (in this case, a muni bus) is turning the corner but not coming towards you.  The iPhone panoramic feature draws sliver by sliver as you move the camera across the area.  As I experimented with the pictures, I was able to find the sweet spot of how to make the buses look stretched.

quote 18:22:00
“ She is disoriented – and yet her progress is a perfectly plotted trajectory through urban space: she looks into the glowing multifaceted jewel in the palm of her hand and here other parallelograms interleave, shuffle and montage in response to the tweezer motions and baton-flicks of her fingers. It tells her where to go, the jewel, and when she places it to her ear it speaks to her, so that in turn she can command her own faltering legs to carry her to the right, to the left, straight ahead ”

Another reason to love iPhone autocorrect.

I think this works because it’s picking up on the artists in your library, not because of some metal fan making sure the in-built dictionary is appropriately umlauted.
That said, however it works, it seems to be making you happy.
