Natuba – Flickr for iPhones
Natuba is aiming to be the Flickr for the iPhone crowd.
Sign up for your free account and you’ll get an email address that links your phone to your Natuba account. Take a photo, email it to Natuba and it will appear.
Like Flickr comments are welcome on your photos and you can visit other users photos. You can follow someone or be followed, tag favorites and use it much the same way you do your Flickr account.
If your mp4 from your phone won’t play on your OSX computer try this
Try changing the file extension to .3gp ( 3rd generation mobile video ).
Mp4 s copied from cell phones to OSX often give ‘An invalid sample description was found in the movie. ‘ Changing from .mp4 to .3gp allows OSX to play the movie.
This supposedly works on Windows as well but several people were unable to successfully change the file extension in Windows. If that doesn’t work try changing the extension to .3g2.
3gp is a stripped down version of mp4. In addition it contains information about the size ( height and width) of your video and the bandwidth speed of your phone. Supposedly QuickTime and RealPlayer play them, but good luck getting that to work.
