SteadyCam Pro App Offers Real-Time Image Stabilization for iPhone Videos

The video capture capabilities found in today’s mobile phones has made it easier than ever to record those priceless memories whenever and wherever they may occur. However, one of the downsides to cramming a video camera into such a small device is the lack of stability that often results in videos that look like they were shot the morning after a big night. With a full-blown steadycam rig probably not the best solution for smoothing out things on the go, Midnox has created an app that provides real-time image stabilization for the iPhone 4.

The Gillmor Gang — 4.10.11 (TCTV)- connection unstable...

The Gillmor Gang — Robert Scoble, Doc Searls, Kevin Marks, Andrew Keen, and Steve Gillmor — dive deep into the reasons why Google has its work cut out for it in the fight for social credibility. @scobleizer thinks it’s because the engineers of the search startup don’t understand the value of wasting time. Doc Searls, who arrived late in the show due to a failure to understand how clocks waste time, thinks there’s room for failing at social.

In a week where Netflix paid a million dollars per episode for the full Monty of seven seasons of Mad Men, the new challenger to HBO and Showtime puts a price tag on the value of the model formerly known as the rerun.

Out of Thin Air

Today’s a big day at Kiip. We’re putting forth an idea that we truly believe will change the landscape of mobile advertising and engagement.
The achievement moment in games evokes feelings of accomplishment and happiness, and speaks directly to pillars of human emotion. The pride that one feels in rising to a challenge – and beating it – is unmatched when we play games.

So we thought to ourselves…what if we could deliver a reward, a genuine, authentic, tangible gift - right at that moment? We’d like that. You would too.
And so we did. We created a network and the technology to help enable brands to reach you when you win - at the achievement moment - with a reward. It helps brands build a one-to-one connection with you, while thanking you, and it brings us all closer through the authenticity of a value exchange.
This is us. We’re Kiip. Reach them when they win.
