Tripping out on TripColor

TripColor is a nifty, new iPhone app being featured in the App Store. And, I’m being featured by them. So, in a strange way, Steve Jobs is smiling on me with an approving twinkle in his eye from wherever he’s hiding out right now.

TripColor works as an easy photo journal. It reads the location and time data embedded on your iPhone photos, let’s you add a short caption, then posts it to a tumblr-esque blog.

Today, they’ve put my recent trip to the Mediterranean on the app home screen for some reason. So if you download he app, you can see the donkey that tried to kill me in Santorini and other great moments in travel right from the front page.

It’s a free app that’s worth a look for photo nerds.

ABC posted the image briefly to photo sharing service Instagram before hastily removing it. However, they couldn’t delete it before yours truly was able to snap this screen shot.

Lewis is packing on the pounds at a clip of 10 per month. As you can see, he takes everything very seriously — including his food.

At this rate, the vet estimates Lewis will reach 90 lbs.

Yup. Ninety.

Now’s the time to teach him to walk calmly and not attack humans in search of a scratch behind the ears. Before we know it, Lewis will be the one taking his humans for a walk.
