Debut Episode of The Tomorrow Show

Mo Rocca may be best known to you as a former correspondent on "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart," but if you've been up on Sunday mornings, you may have caught is more recent work on CBS' "Sunday Morning." This week Mo started hosting a new web-only show called "The Tomorrow Show." He mixes his dry humor with interesting takes on the future. In the premiere episode, Mo examines the future of paper:

Pocket First Aid & CPR for the iPhone and iPod Touch

Not every iPhone app has the potential to save a life, but this is one of them. The American Heart Association has released their official Pocket First Aid and CPR app for the iPhone. The app offers concise information on several first aid topics, but the most useful and unique feature could be the CPR section, which describes different CPR methods and includes straightforward videos to make you more comfortable with the procedure, or to refresh your memory if you've previously taken a CPR class.

It makes us wonder if it wouldn't be better for the world if Apple made this app, or maybe an emergency icon available on the phone by default. Imagine if this app was deployed on every iPhone and iPod Touch.

The Re-birth of Home Movies, Or Why YouTube Is About To Get Worse

from DealExtreme.comAfter playing with the iPhone 3GS for a few days, it's clear that the video function is the killer feature. Yes, video has been available on cell phones for years, and yes you've even been able to upload directly to YouTube with some, but putting it on the iPhone is a game changer, for better or worse.

As we mentioned here recently, there's been a mysterious disappearance of the once omni-present parents with video cameras at kids' events. Well, the iPhone might resurrect the family video market with parents able to quickly and easily shoot and share clips. Only instead of just having distant relatives subjected to video viewing during the family reunion, now we'll all be exposed to them through YouTube.

This really could go one of two ways, and will most likely go both simultaneously: Having millions of decent cameras out there with quick and easy posting capability could lead to an increase in compelling video, capturing moments that would otherwise be lost forever. Or we could get more of the inane video that a majority of people seem to dislike, and yet someone is still making it, and even more people are watching it.

Either way, in six to eight months, we predict an incredible surge in video flooding YouTube from the iPhone. Whether it'll be anything we want to watch is another story.

iPhone 3G S Video Test Footage

It's a grey/gray day here in the Northeast, but that didn't stop us from venturing outside the TDL confines to take some quick video with the iPhone 3G S in varying lighting, focus ranges etc.

Our quick impressions: It looks good, but it looks far better on the iPhone screen while you're shooting it. You will still occasionally see the "wavy" pattern to the video that gives it away as an iPhone. Still, the portability and ease of shooting make up for those shortfalls, but that doesn't mean it wasn't a little disappointing to see the difference once it was on the computer. (the movies show up in iPhoto by the way, just like photos.)

Also bear in mind, there might be additional compression/encoding in getting this online, but that's how most people will see it anyhow:

We Want Your Videos!

The great thing about the Apple community is the amount of creative people, especially when it comes to video. From the beginning, we've wanted our video channel to be reflective of the community as a whole. So we want you to be part of TheDigitalLifestyle.tv If you've already made some sort of Apple-related, or technology-related video, whether it's funny, insightful, instructional, or otherwise, let us know, and we might just add it to the TDL video loop lineup. Also, if you've ever thought about doing your own Apple / tech show, now would be a great time to start. Use our contact form, and tell us where to find your videos (or leave a comment below.)

Help us broaden the depth of Apple video content on TheDigitalLifestyle.tv and make it an Apple community.

Thanks!
