I have had this app for months but decided to give it a try after seeing reviews online. I personally like it but would download the Panoramic app soon because it had better reviews.

PANO

Pros:
-Simple application to make panoramas at an affordable price
-Merges and corrects exposure fairly well.
-Uses a third of a picture for stitching, less photos to complete your panorama.

Cons:
-Can only take up to 6 photos to merge.
-One set resolution
-No button to take another panorama. Must exit & re-enter app.
-If the app crashes, then you loose everything.

When you first began the application the screen will represent the
camera.app on your iPhone/iTouch, except, it will have instructions at the top (if holding horizontally). You can take the first picture by pressing the green button. If you tap “cancel” then you can enter portrait mode. It will then ask you if you want to use the photo (basically a confirmation). You can choose to “use” or “retake.” You then take the next photo. And you keep doing this until you have taken the right amount of pictures or your have taken 6 photos.

Two Clicks to Fun!

The Internet is used for so many things: you can telecommute to work, study, complete and hand in homework, pay bills, order food and merchandise, talk with people across the world, share thoughts, pictures, movies, and do every other essential and recreational part of life.

So, of course, online games are a part of the package too!

Whenever life gets too hectic, you definitely need a break, and the arcade may be too far away. The only thing to do is minimize next month’s quotas and pull up a world of online games that will have you in a good mood and rearing to go–but only after you’ve beaten your last score.

You can enjoy a variety of online games from the familiar staples of gaming to card games like poker, solitaire, and war, to the eclectic games of the Internet that include games with robot unicorns or gang wars. If those seem a little heavy for the lunch break, there are mazes, number challenges, and puzzles that make for a fun distraction.

Online games are just a part of how the world is becoming increasingly digitized, but hey, it’s a fun part. Rolling the dice and buying properties or taking over countries is fun, but with online games, you can lay down sevens over queens with a Brazilian accountant. You can meet people from all over the world or challenge yourself by putting those word per minute skills to work racking up 150,000 points.

So push back from the desk or close out of Biology 102 for a little while, and try your hand at Internet farming, solving mysteries and puzzles, or racing around the speedway. Flex those fingers, adjust your ergonomic keyboard, and enter the world of online games.

It’s better than a desktop nap, right?

I love reading anything. Sometimes when I am bored, I read the labels of cans in our pantry.

I love checking out the bizarre homes in the book You Live Where?. I find it artistically appealing and I cant help but be amazed how people manage to live in those kinds of houses. There are helpful book reviews in 7Books, just in case you need a recommendation on what to read.

If you are business-minded and these types of books appeal to you, you can find online marketing advice in BS Free Marketing. And Lawsome is a play on words on Law+Awesome (sarcastically) because it is all about the dumb laws people make (and get approved, heaven forbid!).
