View NASA’s on demand video, images, news, and more right from your BlackBerry smartphone
For the kid in all of us who love gazing up at the stars and marveling at the wonders that grace the night’s sky there is Space TV. Not too long ago we told you about this application for the BlackBerry PlayBook and how you could access podcasts, video, and news feeds directly from NASA right from your tablet. I’m happy to say that this wonderful application is now available for BlackBerry 10 with even more functionality thanks to the Cascades framework for better performance.

Google Photo Sphere images can now be embedded into a website
014 days
by J
Jelly Bean 4.2 added quite a few improvements to the Android experience, but arguably the most exciting feature is the ability to create a Photo Sphere. Unfortunately, taking and viewing these 360-degree panoramic images has been a limited experience at best. The Photo Sphere feature is still only for Android 4.2, but the good news is that viewing these images is about to become a lot less complicated.
Previously, you had three ways to view a Photo Sphere: directly from the Android 4.2 device it was taken, through Google+ pages or they could be uploaded into Google Maps. Today Google introduced a new Photo Sphere web widget that makes it easy to display the images across the web.
At the top of this post is a static image that shows of the new Photo Sphere web widget, and comes from professional photographer Colby Brown’s website. Head over there to check his collection of breath-taking images for yourself. Navigating is very simple, and works with either a mouse or with touch gestures.
So what’s involved to get these images working on your own website? First you will need to upload the images to either Google+ or Picasa, as there is no way to store them directly on your site. The process is actually handled through the use of Javascript code and the Google+ API. For those that would like to give it a try, Google details the process in a special post on the Google Developers site.
Being able to view these beautiful 360 images in more places certainly doesn’t take away from the sting that many of us feel for not having Android 4.2 yet, but it is still certainly a welcome feature.
What do you think of Photo Sphere, how do you feel it compares to other 360-degree camera software out there?

Google Photo Sphere images now embeddable on any website

Photo Sphere is a feature that was introduced with Android 4.2 Jelly Bean. Basically that means only a limited amount of users are able to capture Photo Sphere images at the moment. Not to mention, the options and places to view these images has also rather limited. In the past, Photo Sphere viewing was previously limited to Google+ pages, the device that took the picture and on Google Maps (provided they were uploaded).
As of today however, it looks like Photo Sphere images can now be seen on any website. This process is handled with a bit of JavaScript code and the Google+ API. The code will need to be placed on the website where you plan to have your Photo Sphere images viewable. The trick is, the images themselves are not actually hosted on your website.
Instead, the images will still need to be uploaded to Google+ or Picasa first. Google has provided a detailed set of directions on the Developers pages, those can be found here. Google also provided a working example of how these images will appear to visitors and that page can be seen here.
Bottom line, while this doesn’t mean more people will be able to capture these images, this update will make them easier to show off. Finally, those who simply want to browse around and check out a wide variety of Photo Sphere images may want to check out the Google Maps Street View page.

Add a touch of color to your images with Colorize for BlackBerry 10
0
Looking to bring attention to your photographs without Photoshop? Colorize turns your images into black and white while you choose which area remains in full color.
If you even want to see how times change all you need to do is walk along a city street. Over the past seven years I’ve noticed a trend. Gone are the days of tourists using disposable and compact cameras to create lasting memories. Now smartphones are being used to capture that special moment everywhere I go.
That being said, the shutterbug in all of us aims for more than just the standard point and shoot. When sharing with friends and family, rather than spend time manipulating your images with Photoshop, we look for instant results using an application. That is where Colorize by Generation Media Group (a native application) comes into the play which focuses on a popular photography effect. By converting your photographs into black and white, it allows you to add back one or more of the original colors to create a new and dramatic image with little effort.

How to request high quality images over BBM on BlackBerry 10
0
BlackBerry Messenger is a great way to instantly keep in touch with people. Being able to send pictures via BBM is one of my favorite features, as you can quickly share what you’re looking at without missing a beat. BlackBerry compresses images sent through BBM, which is nice if you’re watching your data usage, but what about when you want a higher quality image? Luckily, there is an option to request a high quality image. The release of BlackBerry 10 saw a bit of change to the process, so check out the following tutorial to see just how it’s done.

Android 4.2.2 factory images for Nexus 10, 7 and 4 posted
0
We recently saw the return of the Nexus 4 Android 4.2.1 factory images and coming as we would expect given an updated release — Google has posted the Android 4.2.2 factory images. These images are available for the Nexus 10 and Nexus 7 tablets as well as the Nexus 4 and Galaxy Nexus smartphones.
Some handsets, such as the carrier specific Galaxy Nexus models and the Nexus S are still reflecting older builds. Basically, these factory images will be useful for those who have flashed a custom ROM and are now looking to get back to the original out-of-box state. Or alternatively, these will be useful for those who tried to flash a ROM and ended up with a brick.
One of the interesting takes here, some of the smartphones have several builds available. Some are going back to Android 4.0.4 and even 2.3.6, but in the case of the Nexus 4 — it is just Android 4.2.2 (JDQ39). While there are most likely some theories as to why that is, we should point out that the Nexus 10 and 7 sit in a similar position with just one version being available. Another exception is for the Wi-Fi only Nexus 7 which has 4.2.2 (JDQ39) and 4.2.1 (JZO54K) available.
Bottom line here, Google has released the Android 4.2.2 factory images for most Nexus devices which really just goes to say that you should be able to do a bit of playing with ROM’s and a bit less worrying about not being able to get back to where you began. If nothing else, we suggest downloading the factory image for your device ahead of time — just in case you need it urgently, or just in case Google happens to remove it like they did with the 4.2.1 images.
