...k in the confines and with therestrictions of an office five days a week.How about something so new it was “just invented” in 2000. Sonew that it wasn’t even available in Canada, the US and Europeuntil 2002. So new that practical uses for it, including uses ofa commercial nature, are just beginning to make themselves known.That’s only three years – or a little less.So what am I talking about?I’m talking about the “picture taking cell-phone”.What? You can’t see any practical use for a “picture taking cellphone” except as an invasion of someone’s privacy, and youdefinitely don’t want it to be your privacy? Well, I can’tdisagree with that, but consider these uses as a starting point:·In Sweden recently a burglary attempt was photographed on thestore owners cell phone camera, circulated to the police and thecriminal apprehended within a half hour. * ·In Wales doctorshave been experimenting with a system to speed diagnosis offractures by sending photos of X-rays to consultants to get asecond opinion in minutes. * ·In the US mobile-phone serviceproviders are setting up electronic photo albums where customerscan display pictures taken with phone-cams. * ·In January 2003,showstudio.com, a fashion-news web site, used phones to beamphotos from Paris fashion shows, producing almost-live coverageof the catwalks and scooping the competition. * ·BBC News Onlinenow accepts photographs of news events from readers. * ·HowardRheingold, author of Smart Mobs: The Next Social Revolution,predicts phonecams and similar technology will change the newslandscape. ** Courtesy Readers Digest, January 2004.So here are a few ideas, things that are already being done. Now I realize that phone-cam pictures aren’t the latest andgreatest in high-resolution photography. You won’t be winningany awards with your pictures for “gallery quality” work! But…you can take action photos of breaking news and have itinstantly ready for media use. You can take pictures of eventsand have them instantly reproduced in far distant locales. Youcan capture ideas and archive them for your later use in art,fashion, etc.Just let your imagination run wild, jot down all the ideas youcan come up with for possible uses of your cell phone camera,run them by all your friends, weed out the impractical, and “go”with what you have left. Investigate, check it out in detail,and then “put your dream to work” and create your own new,successful home-based business from your cell-phone camera.Happy picture taking.
