Lifeblog 2.0 features

Jukka, over at the S60 Multimedia Blog was talking about some of the new features in Lifeblog 2.0 (link below, and read some comments). I've been using it for some time now on my Nseries phone and really like the upgrade.

What I like about some products is that some of the best changes are small but have high impact. And Lifeblog 2.0 has many of these small, but impactful, changes.

One of my favorites is, in Lifeblog PC, you can select an item and then ask to extend the selection to all other items from the same cellID. Then, you can change the metadata (tags, date, location, etc) associated with them all.

For example, say you select a pic from a bar and extend the selection to all your pics ever at that bar (as determined by the cellID). You could then label all those pics as being located at the bar.

But, the real kicker is, you can then set Lifeblog to automatically label all future pics from that cellID in the same way.

How cool is that?

I think Lifeblog is finally getting into its role of mixing metadata, media, and phone info in a really interesting way that the user can easily manipulate and take advantage of.

I was wondering what kind of features actually one gets with the new 2.0 version (exclusively for Nokia Nseries phones).

As you may know, I'm a big fan of the Nokia Lifeblog product and use it on my own website for moblogging. When I finally get a new NSeries handset, this upgrade will be one of the first things I'm going to try out. [Read More]
