In the last edition, we told you about the new version of Google’s PhotoScan. In this edition, we have a review combined with a tutorial (in the Mobile Computing section) on how it works. I am impressed with this app and look forward to using it next week when I get back home. I have no photographs here to try it out. I think it might help a lot of us out with our shoe boxes filled with old photos.
Also in this edition, we have a list of some of the best Black Friday apps for your pads and phones. It might come in handy since Thanksgiving is almost upon us…plus there are some tips and tricks on how to use iOS and Android. And since I don’t have any earth shattering comments to make, why don’t I let you get started with your reading. Have a great weekend! -JRC
