Camera Phone Changes How I Do Things

by Frank on September 25, 2007

Parking

That’s where my car is parked at PHL. Each time I park I make a quick picture with my camera phone and then I don’t have to write down on a scrap of paper where I left my car. I find that I use my iPhone camera more and more. It’s a matter of convenience. I have a killer Nikon DSLR and a very nice Casio 10Meg portable. But it’s the convenience of a convergence device — having a built in camera makes me take more shots. Added bonus: I’ll know where my car is when I get to the airport tomorrow.

Great idea. I forget my parking spot at airports all the freakin’time.

I am making a new New Year’s resolution (Jewish ny,I am not late/early) to think of ways to use technology to make life easier.

Hope the trip back from Denver is better than the one out.

I love that idea. If only I had a camera phone.

Great idea. I frequently forget where I park at O’Hare and I am there frequently.

I resolve to focus on ways that I can use technology to make life easier. Given that the new year just started this is timely.

Albert, Pax and Jimmi…lol…that is too funny.

Rick and Jess, it really works…Jess, you make so many nice pix with your regular cam…I’d bet you’d take a lot with a camera phone. Rick, funny, huh? I’m always looking for a shortcut.

This is really the first time I’ve heard of a use of a camera phone where I thought, “that could be handy after all”.

PSoTD, funny, it really works for me. Since I’ve been doing it I make a pic of the spot and the elevator bank. I guess if I lose my phone I lose my car. Yikes!
