Your Life In Pictures, Get Fab-letics and More!

I recently admitted my “harmless obsession” of taking photos every morning of the sunrise from my apartment. I was intrigued when I saw the app Blipfoto on Netted from the Webbys. This app is similar to instagram without the pithy captions and tagging. You can upload one photo per day to keep a running photo journal of your life – perfect for me!

blipfotoHere is how it works. You can:

  • Take photos or add them from your library on your smart phone or tablet.
  • See what others are sharing in the newsfeed
  • Browse photos and subscribe to the users you find the most interesting
  • Look for photos by location. I can see if anyone shares my sunrise over Lake Michigan obsession!
  • Search for people and key words.

You can also link to Facebook and Twitter or embed pictures into your blog or website. Here is my first entry:

This app is super easy to use. I think I will get my daily sunrise project going starting today!

If you don’t want to wait to see if you win the sweepstakes, you can get 50% off your first outfit and free shipping from Kate Hudson’s Fabletics. I signed up and picked a long sleeve shirt and yoga capris. They are really good quality. I have worn the capris a dozen times and they wash and fit very well. The top is very lulu-esque if you know what I mean. The total cost for this outfit was $24.97 and shipping was free.

My Fabletics outfit. I love the length of the top and the capris wear very well!
