Seem to be possessed with apps at the moment, and they're not even all available for an Android-HTC-User blogger, not good. But I was sent this link to the 'the first app which enables iPhone users to create infographics on their devices'. http://www.photostatsapp.com/



Its not the fact that its infographics going wild, even saw a TED video that envisions health care on mobile devices as infographics etc, but I like the fact that Photo Stats 'analyzes metadata from the photos on camera roll' as the data source to visualise.

  Ok , there is daytum and its app to record data and visualise, but you are manually inputting and intentionally recording this data to visualise. I am intrigued that as I shoot it speaks/shows 'user’s photo taking habits' and where abouts these photos were taken recorded from gps and EXIF metadata... is it?

  All that data such as the camera type, the shutter speed etc  all data that should be visualised, not about the content of the photo.  

But I liked it as I'm intrigued and started to record the geography not just photo, but emotion, feeling through written, showing taste? something looking appetising whet's the lips? anyhow i just explored and experimented as a start here: http://visualisationmagazine.com/dineography.htm . I know these aren't in the EXIF metadata but seems there is something more to photos like this app is trying to do with habits, regular places visited, times of the day, light levels... could add to the mood/atmosphere of a photo.

I leave with this:

'If an image is worth thousand words how much is an infographic about all your photos in the camera roll?'
