iPhone Timelapse Video App
You know those really cool timelapse videos of project builds you always thought you could do, but never really got around to making because your camera didn’t have a timelapse setting or installing custom firmware was too much of a hassle? Well, if you’re sporting an iPhone and have the means to mount it over your work area for the duration of the build, you might want to check out Honey Build app from Replicator, Inc.. Create timelapse videos from just a few seconds or minutes, to sequences that span hours or days. Just set it and get to working on your project. When you’re done, it will automatically build a video for you to share.

iPhone Telephoto Lens Kit
Flipping though an in-flight magazine on a recent trip, I came across this fantastically absurd iPhone telephoto lens kit from Photojojo. The sample images I’ve seen are decent considering it’s coming from a handset. The kit comes with a telephoto lens, snap-on case, and a tiny tripod. Perfect for aspiring paparazzi or any portion of the 99% that want to remain a safe distance while diligently documenting #ows.
iPhone Lens Carousel Roundup
What a difference a couple of years make. Back in 2009, you had to scrounge together a bunch of lenses and glue them to a jar lid if you wanted a smartphone lens carousel. Nowadays you’ve got options.
iShred: iPad Embedded Snowboard
Every Third Thursday the employees of Signal Snowboards get together to get creative with board design and materials, and generally hack on gear at the factory. Recently they laboriously toiled over one of the more creative snowboard designs I’ve seen: the iShred.
