My favorite tiltshift-app just went free! Hooray!
Too bad i already bought it. Anyway if you don't own it yet, go and download it now.

Tiltpod - the keychain tripod for your iPhone

I love gadgets. Did i mention that i love gadgets? Especially the useless useful ones. Photojojo did it again, when they designed and released their newest creation called "Tiltpod Mobile". It is actually a keyring that has a small tripod with it that works with your caseless iPhone.
