A Facebook Gift

This video was created by Facebook about my trip to the Galapagos. I opened my Facebook account today and there it was. Interesting to note, some of these photos were never posted on Facebook. They were taken from my camera roll on my iPhone. Watch out what you store on your phone. Facebook can grab them.

Photos on your camera roll are stored by city, and by date. It’s not that difficult for a software program to capture a group of photos that are related to each other. The video did have one mistake and I was able to eliminate the photo from another story.

I’m pretty proud that I was able to take the video off of Facebook and post it here. That was something I couldn’t do before. All I had to do was save the video to my camera roll, then turn it into a YouTube video on my channel, and then post it here. It was so simple.

Multi-Function YouTube App

I finally had a chance to play with YouTube’s Capture app. Now I may never stop. I love video taping everything, but uploading to YouTube has always been problematic for me. There were too many steps before I had the opportunity to share my videos with family and friends.

Hooray! YouTube simplified the process. Now the Capture app from YouTube is featuring all the tools I need before uploading. I can now add captions, tags, and edit (color correction and auto stabilization) — and even include music. When I’m done putting the finishing touches on my video, I can then instantly upload the file directly to my YouTube channel. I can also store it as a private video.

Here is the best part. I can also share the video from the Capture app on Google+, Twitter, and Facebook. This saves me so much time because I used to have to go in and out of each app to get this done.

As you know, YouTube is owned by Google, so the fact that Capture is available on iOS is a big deal. Google will be making it available on Android mobile phones very soon.

I have included a Capture demo video, above.

Find below my own Capture videos, the first one taken in the Courtyard Restaurant of the Ritz Hotel in Madrid, and the second one taken in the lobby.
