#infinitecanvas #startup free app allows you to view, create, and share a new kind of interactive hypermedia #mlearning

2012-12-13T12:48:00.004-08:00

Infinite Canvas Bring your ideas and creative projects onto the iPad into a blank digital canvas without boundaries — an Infinite Canvas. This easy-to-use application allows you to design in all directions to create stories, portfolios, presentations and more!Inspired by Hypercard and a concept originally created to tell non-linear stories in comics, Infinite Canvas provides a new way to interact with content on your iPad.
Break the sequential barriers often found in traditional presentation software and dive into a rich non-linear medium.
What is a non-linear medium? It is a space with in multiple directions, with the ability to move through information in a non-sequential order. With Infinite Canvas, dive into rich media — graphic novels, comics, creative portfolios, magazines, photo journals, children’s stories, real estate brochures, art gallery tours, travelogues and tutorials.
Swipe up, down, left or right to follow the strands of multiple storylines. Orient yourself with a double tap to show a minimap. Immerse yourself in an illuminated manuscript, follow various points of view, explore branching narratives and craft your own adventure!
Each canvas created is a unique experience of multimedia. For example, you can follow the point of view of two or more characters in the same story—in a murder mystery follow the murderer, or the detective. Beyond storytelling, a real estate agent can take potential clients on a virtual tour of a house before physically taking them inside. Infinite Canvas puts the viewer in the driver’s seat.
Infinite Canvas gives you the tools to create and share your own interactive stories. With its intuitive interface, anyone can create new kinds of artistic works with no programming experience required! Just load up your digital assets (images, sounds, text, or HTML) and assemble them into a grid, add captions, buttons and cinematic effects. In minutes, a visual map of your information emerges as you freely interconnect your content in original ways. This allows you to produce your own canvases and share them as widely as you wish.
Download Infinite Canvas now! Infinite Canvas includes a Showcase Gallery featuring some of the best examples of this new medium to date. View as many canvases as you like without having to subscribe to any website or service. Feeling inspired? Get your feet wet by creating your own small canvases (up to 12 tiles each). Want more? Unlimited tile creation with Dropbox support is only an upgrade away.

Today when #apple announce #icloud at #wwdc I launch in #edtech20 project new #mLearning blog in #education20

2011-06-06T13:54:00.000-07:00

Today when everyoane has a iphone , ipod or ipad is very easy to browse the web and to use wonderful free apps to mlearning . Learning in hand is a new concept who bring reform in XXI Century Education .For this reason I think to launch this mlearning blog in #edtech20 #curation and #semantic project gateway to knowledge in #education20 http://unhub.com/web20education/ where I will post useful and wonderful mlearning apps and tools . But now like I write in the title today I was partcicipated virtually in the Worldwide Developers Conference San Francisco 2011 http://events.apple.com.edgesuite.net/11piubpwiqubf06/event/ and I hear Steave Jobs who introduce icloud service and using twitter hastag #wwdc I saw many interesting things .

What is iCloud ?

Icloud stores your music, photos, apps, calendars, documents, and more. And wirelessly pushes them to all your devices — automatically. It’s the easiest way to manage your content. Because now you don’t have to. iCloud is seamlessly integrated into your apps, so you can access your content on all your devices. And it’s free with iOS 5.

Features :

The former MobileMe® services—Contacts, Calendar and Mail—all completely re-architected and rewritten to work seamlessly with iCloud. Users can share calendars with friends and family, and the ad-free push Mail account is hosted at me.com. Your inbox and mailboxes are kept up-to-date across all your iOS devices and computers.

The App Store™ and iBookstore℠ now download purchased iOS apps and books to all your devices, not just the device they were purchased on. In addition, the App Store and iBookstore now let you see your purchase history, and simply tapping the iCloud icon will download any apps and books to any iOS device (up to 10 devices) at no additional cost.

iCloud Backup automatically and securely backs up your iOS devices to iCloud daily over Wi-Fi when you charge your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. Backed up content includes purchased music, apps and books, Camera Roll (photos and videos), device settings and app data. If you replace your iOS device, just enter your Apple ID and password during setup and iCloud restores your new device.

iCloud Storage seamlessly stores all documents created using iCloud Storage APIs, and automatically pushes them to all your devices. When you change a document on any device, iCloud automatically pushes the changes to all your devices. Apple’s Pages®, Numbers® and Keynote® apps already take advantage of iCloud Storage. Users get up to 5GB of free storage for their mail, documents and backup—which is more amazing since the storage for music, apps and books purchased from Apple, and the storage required by Photo Stream doesn’t count towards this 5GB total. Users will be able to buy even more storage, with details announced when iCloud ships this fall.

iCloud’s innovative Photo Stream service automatically uploads the photos you take or import on any of your devices and wirelessly pushes them to all your devices and computers. So you can use your iPhone to take a dozen photos of your friends during the afternoon baseball game, and they will be ready to share with the entire group on your iPad (or even Apple TV®) when you return home. Photo Stream is built into the photo apps on all iOS devices, iPhoto® on Macs, and saved to the Pictures folder on a PC. To save space, the last 1,000 photos are stored on each device so they can be viewed or moved to an album to save forever. Macs and PCs will store all photos from the Photo Stream, since they have more storage. iCloud will store each photo in the cloud for 30 days, which is plenty of time to connect your devices to iCloud and automatically download the latest photos from Photo Stream via Wi-Fi.

iTunes® in the Cloud lets you download your previously purchased iTunes music to all your iOS devices at no additional cost, and new music purchases can be downloaded automatically to all your devices. In addition, music not purchased from iTunes can gain the same benefits by using iTunes Match, a service that replaces your music with a 256 kbps AAC DRM-free version if we can match it to the over 18 million songs in the iTunes Store®, it makes the matched music available in minutes (instead of weeks to upload your entire music library), and uploads only the small percentage of unmatched music. iTunes Match will be available this fall for a $24.99 annual fee. Apple today is releasing a free beta version of iTunes in the Cloud, without iTunes Match, for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users running iOS 4.3. iTunes in the Cloud will support all iPhones that iOS 5 supports this fall. § Your content. On all your devices.
iCloud is so much more than a hard drive in the sky. It’s the effortless way to access just about everything on all your devices. iCloud stores your content so it’s always accessible from your iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, Mac, or PC.* It gives you instant access to your music, apps, latest photos, and more. And it keeps your email, contacts, and calendars up to date across all your devices. No syncing required. No management required. In fact, no anything required. iCloud does it all for you.Free gets you a lot.

When you sign up for iCloud, you automatically get 5GB of free storage. And that’s plenty of room, because of the way iCloud stores your content. Your purchased music, apps, and books, as well as your Photo Stream, don’t count against your free storage. That leaves your mail, documents, Camera Roll, account information, settings, and other app data. And since those things don’t use as much space, you’ll find that 5GB goes a long way.
