Get a Beautiful Mosaic Photobook from Your Smartphone for $10 Off

Screen Shot 2015-06-14 at 11.19.33 AMMosaic is a free app for iOS on iPhone and iPad and for Android. In just seconds, you can craft a gorgeous photobook and order it from your phone and get it in 4 business days. It’s not often you can get a customized, personal gift that quickly!

I’ve got a deal just for my readers – click on this link: https://bnc.lt/l/5g3JLME0u1 and Mosaic will text you a link to the app and you will get $10 off your first Mosaic book! Sadly, the deal won’t work if you’ve already ordered a Mosaic – it’s for first timers only.

Your personalized book has a mosaic, precision window pattern die-cut cover that shows a summary of your 20 photos selected for the book.

Screen Shot 2015-06-14 at 11.32.55 AMThe Mosaic app will not only let you select photos from your phone’s camera roll (including an easy browse by album), but will also let you select photos from your Facebook albums as well.

The book arrives quickly, in a stunning presentation box. The books are not huge – just 7″x7″ – which is great for good print quality from photos that aren’t always the highest resolution (think about those evening photos you took on your iPhone that are kinda grainy – like Loch Ness Monster photo quality!).

These books are all ready to be given when you receive them. They are already in a beautiful box that is wrapped in a mosaic pattern as well. The box will be a keepsake as well.

You can visit Mosaic on Twitter, Facebook and their website.

Geeky Acoustic Amplifier for iPhone 6 Requires No Power

elago1This new Kickstarter project by Elago delivers an elegant charging stand (you supply the cable and power) that uses an acoustic chamber to amplify your music or podcasts. It is beautifully designed and looks like something Apple would use in their retail stores to display their products. I know – I used to work at the Apple Store for nearly 5 years – they’re pretty anal about how they display stuff and the Elago acoustic amplifier would definitely make the aesthetic cut. Their Kickstarter campaign has less than a week to go, so spread the word so this awesome little acoustic speaker can make its funding goal. Elago is on Facebook and on Twitter.
