This being the first blog entry, I just wanted to say welcome to the world. To give a bit of an intro to the site, Pictails is a photo site sharing the world throught he eye of my trusty iPhone 3G (still waiting to get my 3GS... April. Or whatever Apple happens to come up with in June or July) and a cool little iPhone app called ShakeItPhoto. ShakeItPhoto will allow you to take a photo (or something from your iPhone's Camera Library) and turn it into a snazzy little Polaroid-ish shot, complete with the ability to shake your phone to "develop" your photo.
Granted, the concept of the site isn't really anything new or ground-breaking. There are plenty of site just like this. I got the idea from Hawk over at the Applegeeks webcomic. You can find his photo fun at his site "Daily iPhone Polaroid". The idea of doing a one-shot-a-day site was fun and ShakeItPhoto is just 99ยข, so it's hard to go wrong there. The thing I like is that you can have piles of sites that all follow this same idea and you get a different experience on each site. It's the photos that make it unique. Each person that take photos has different experiences. Different situations. It's all about seeing the journey. Here, I'm going to give the world a small glimpse into a moment from each day of me. One image. Every day. I hope to keep doing this until I either run out of server space or the phone ceases to exist. (Neither of which should be happening anytime soon.)
So, thanks for visiting and I hope you all enjoy a daily dose of the piccies!
