Instastory: Just take a look at this...

I have to admit I do like a good story. But in todays fast paced lifestyle where we seem to have chosen to limit our attention span, story telling has taken something of a body blow. 

Yet, what technology takes with one hand, it returns with another for there are those that have re-written the format so we can share our moments  - our stories - in an immensely entertaining, visual and audible way. Let me introduce to to INSTASTORY.

I stumbled across this app for the iPhone a couple of weeks ago and since then have been addicted to creating mini-stories that tell  a simple tale, express a certain view or simply reflect a moment in time. Have a look at the two examples on the right here and see what you think.  Just click on either the headings or the images and you will be able to view the videos on the web page. If you have an iPhone, you can download the free app here or visit the Instastory web Page here for more info.

Hi
I have been following your photography for a while, and these InstaStory clips really add a lot to the experience (and they are fun to do...)
Thanks for the info!
