But there’s a hugely expanded appetite for photography and with this comes new opportunities; the greatest obstacles to commercial expansion are the limits of our own imaginations and our fear of uncertainty. I see more and more brilliant business innovations, often sparked by young entrepreneurs with low overheads and little to lose. Some of them are experiencing short-term success, some are not and it’s still too soon to judge which will sustain as the world moves forward.

Place-based Storytelling
"Placed-based storytelling enables a connection between the past and the present that enriches both; enriches our understanding of both. Not only in terms of how we view them, but especially in terms of how we use both the past and the present to guide us into the future." ~

Games For Civic Participation, Social Causes, And Fun
"Games allow you to create a system that when people participate, they generate a story," says Jeff Watson, a proponent of "civic games"--play that’s not just for fun, but has some underlying social purpose. "When people participate, it’s a lot more powerful than someone telling them what to do."
Many nonprofits have adopted game playing, as they seek new and more engaging ways of reaching audiences. Now, many of the best ideas have been collated into an example-rich report available via Co.Exist:

What’s the Difference Between Native Apps and Web Apps?
Native apps are built to work on to work on one platform (like the iPhone), not multiple platforms. To download a native app, you need to:
1. Go to the appropriate app store
2. Search for and locate the app
3. Download the app to your device.
By contrast, Mobile Web apps are built to work across different platforms, allowing you to have one app that works on all smartphones and tablet devices. Rather than needing to go to an app store, you simply access the app through the Internet browser on your phone. No downloads needed. To access a web app, you need to:
1. Type in the app’s URL in your browser (or scan a QR code). That’s it. No downloads. No waiting.

9 Apps For Editing Video On Your Smartphone
Just a few years ago creating your own movie would have required an expensive camcorder to shoot, and your own –- often expensive -– video editing equipment in order to polish your video into something you’d want to share with others.
Now most smartphones come with built-in video cameras that can often capture high-definition videos worthy of your 50-inch high-definition television. In addition to replacing the camcorder, your smartphone can also be used as a video editor....

Mobile Learning Toolkit
The result of my thesis project is a Mobile Learning Toolkit that is designed to empower trainers in Africa and other developing contexts to integrate mobile learning into their teaching.
Jenni Parker
The 98-page toolkit contains 15 mobile learning methods divided into 4 categories that trainers can choose from depending on their needs – whether they’re looking deliver content; assign tasks; gather feedback; or provide support to their training participants.
These methods have been designed to be as inclusive as possible, with most requiring only low end devices (basic mobile phones with voice calling and SMS capability), allowing interactive learning experiences to be delivered right to the Base of the Pyramid.
In addition to the methods, an overview of mobile learning is included in the beginning of the guidebook and a set of practical tools that allow the methods to be immediately put into practice.
