<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>War ich noch so begeistert davon ein Projekt gefunden zu haben, das <a href="http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exif">Exif</a>- und <a href="http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPTC-NAA-Standard">IPTC</a>-Daten in Photos lesen und schreiben kann (<a href="http://frickelblog.wordpress.com/2009/08/21/java-library-for-reading-writing-exif-xmp-and-iptc-in-jpegs/">siehe hier</a>), habe ich beim Experimentieren auch gleich einen (seit 27 .März 2009                   bekannten) Bug gefunden: &#8220;<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SANSELAN-21">Fetching GPS Latitude Ref gets Interoperability Index instead of Reference</a>&#8220;</p>
<p>Das heißt, ich kann aus meinen Bildern (die ich mit <a href="http://www.locr.com/">locr</a> mit <a href="http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geotag">Geotags</a> versehe) die Position nicht extrahieren &#8211; sehr schade. Immerhin ist der Bug bekannt und nun um ein Vote reicher. Vielleicht wird der Bug ja bald behoben. Je nachdem wie dringend ich die Funktionalität bald brauche, sehe ich mich doch schon fast bald dieselben Tests mit <a href="http://reader.imagero.com/">Imagero</a> durchführen.</p>
<p><strong>Update 26.11.2009:</strong> Nachdem ich mir heute vorgenommen hatte, mir den Sanselan Code einmal selbst anzusehen um den Bug vielleicht zu finden, war ich doch sehr überrascht, als ich eine Mail vom Apache-Bugtracker bekomme in der Bill Evans schreibt, er habe den Fehler und eine Lösung gefunden.</p>
<p>Sanslean Sourcen entpackt, Patch durchgeführt, getestet JUHU! <strong>Funktioniert. </strong></p>
<p>Und dank der Testdateien von Seb (siehe Kommentar) auch noch gleich neue GPS-Tags entdeckt:<br />
GPS Img Direction Ref: &#8216;M&#8217;<br />
GPS Img Direction: 2133/10 (213,3)<br />
Also die Richtung in die fotografiert wurde.</p>
<p>Und solange der Bugfix noch nicht ins <a href="http://commons.apache.org/sanselan/">offizielle Sanselan-Release</a> eingeflossen ist, kann man die gebugfixte Version <a href="http://www.cip.ifi.lmu.de/~graff/Sanselan-Project.jar">hier downloaden</a>.</p>

<p>That is, if you live in Europe or North America or some other place where we use Summer and Winter time.</p>
<p>If you do, and you have not yet corrected your cameras&#8217; time, then do it now. Otherwise your EXIF data will be wrong all winter. (Or summer if you live down under, but I do <em>not</em> want to hear about that).</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>META 101</p>
<p>There’s room for more than meets the eye inside a digital photo image file. Regardless of the format, these files can store not only image data but also information about the images. Metadata is, literally, data about data. When included in image files, we call this information “photo metadata.”  Metadata is actually part of the image file, effectively a bundle of image data and information about that image.</p>
<p>Digital photo files can include descriptive, technical and administrative classes of metadata of several types. These can list an image’s creator, copyright holder, source and description. They can explain rights released and available to an image. They can list how and when an image was created, its size, color characteristics and more. Read our Metadata FAQs</p>
<p>Embedding and preserving photo metadata can prevent and solve many issues confronting photographers and others who work with digital images. Our goal is to help everyone involved with digital photos – from image creators to distributors, users, archivists and developers – better understand photo metadata and best practices for harnessing this amazing tool to organize and communicate. Read our Metadata Manifesto</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>เวลาเปิดดูภาพถ่าย แล้วเกิดความสงสัยอยากรู้ว่าภาพนี้ถ่ายด้วยกล้องอะไร ที่ความเร็วชัตเตอร์เท่าไร หรือมีค่ารูรับแสงเท่าไร  ใช้ค่า ISO  เท่าไร ทำไมภาพสวยจังจะทำอย่างไร ?  ซึ่งเดี่ยวนี้ windows  ที่สูงกว่า xp ก็สามารถดูได้แล้วไม่ต้องพึ่งพาโปรแกรมอะไร  (โดยการคลิกขวาที่ภาพ &#8211;&#62; property &#8211;&#62;details)</p>

ข้อมูลพวกนี้เรียกว่า exif (ไม่รู้จะอ่านว่าอะไรดี เรียก exif ไปเลยน่ะครับ) ย่อมาจาก Exchangeable image file    format  ซึ่งจะเก็บรายละเอียดต่างๆ ไว้ที่ภาพ ซึ่งข้อมูลพวกนี้จะถูกฝังไว้ที่ภาพตั้งแต่ตอนภาพถูกถ่าย ซึ่งแน่นอนการที่มีข้อมูลถูกฝังลงไปที่ภาพก็ทำให้ภาพมีขนาดที่ใหญ่ขึ้นตามไปด้วย  การมองภาพในแง่ของคนดูทั่วๆ ไป มองผ่านแล้วผ่านเลย exit ถือว่าไม่มีความสำคัญอะไรต่อคนพวกนี้ แต่สำหรับนักถ่ายภาพแล้ว exif มีความสำคัญอย่างมาก ทำให้รู้ถึงรายละเอียดต่าง ๆของการถ่ายภาพ และได้เอามาวิเคราะห์เพื่อพัฒนาฝีมือในการถ่ายภาพต่อไป</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a title="Bangkok Morning from the Apartment by GB-in-TH, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/gb_in_th/4040977079/" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2428/4040977079_dddf42329e.jpg" alt="Bangkok Morning from the Apartment" width="500" height="333" /></a><br />
It&#8217;s a lovely Sunday morning in Bangkok. The sky is clear and it isn&#8217;t too hot or humid. I took some photos out of the window using the Nikon Coolpix P6000&#8217;s &#8220;Landscape&#8221; mode. That reminded me on a minor annoyance in Lightroom 2. I wanted to see if Adobe have fixed it in the Lightroom 3 Beta.</p>
<p>No, they haven&#8217;t, but it probably isn&#8217;t their fault.</p>
<p><br />
With my Canon EOS-30D, if I take a photo in one of the camera&#8217;s preset modes: &#8220;Action/Sports&#8221;, &#8220;Closeup&#8221;, &#8220;Landscape&#8221; or &#8220;Portrait&#8221; this setting shows up in the &#8220;Exposure Program&#8221; field of the EXIF information as displayed in Lightroom.</p>
<p>But Lightroom 2 and 3 Beta both show Exposure Program <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Normal</span> for the Nikon Coolpix P6000.</p>
<p>I assume this is because Nikon store this information in a non-standard format and Adobe don&#8217;t extract it from the file.</p>
<p>I checked my old Canon EOS-300D in Landscape mode. Lightroom 2 does not display an EXIF Exposure Program setting at all.</p>
<p>That may mean that the storage of this information in the EXIF is not standard and Adobe made a special case for the EOS-30D.</p>
<p>I tried searching my pictures for those taken in Landscape mode using Lightroom&#8217;s filters. It isn&#8217;t a standard filter and it does not work if I set up a text filter on &#8220;Searchable Metadata&#8221; or &#8220;Searchable EXIF&#8221; for the string &#8220;Landscape&#8221;. that&#8217;s a bit inconvenient. I&#8217;d like to be able to do that.</p>
<p>I tried it in both version 2 and version 3 with the same result. The fact that Adobe use the term &#8220;searchable&#8221; implies that some EXIF (and IPTC) fields are not searchable.</p>
<p>The problem is obviously not simple. My current guess is that &#8220;Exposure Program&#8221; is an enumerated type rather than a string and each manufacturer encodes it differently.</p>
<p>I know &#8220;serious photographers&#8221; don&#8217;t use these scene modes at all. On Canon cameras, for example, you cannot shoot in Raw if you use a programmed mode. I am a pragmatist. I&#8217;ll use whatever it takes to get the picture I want. I do draw the line at what I think are silly modes like &#8220;<a title="Food Mode" href="http://bkkphotographer.wordpress.com/2009/08/17/does-your-digital-camera-have-a-food-setting-slashfood/" target="_blank">Food</a>&#8220;.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-307" style="margin-left:0;margin-right:17px;" title="spclogo" src="http://seoulphotoclub.wordpress.com/files/2009/02/spclogo.gif" alt="commentarylogo" width="48" height="48" />Think of the EXIF data as the pencil and paper of the pre-digital days. Before the digital era, the photographer had to manually record the settings of each shot so he or she could look at their photos later and learn what worked for a given situation, or what combination of settings produced what effects.</p>
<p>These days it&#8217;s a breeze &#8212; no pencils in sight! When you take that shot, a great deal of information is written into the image. Much of the data is of no real practical use as far as the average photographer like you or I are concerned, but some of it is extremely helpful. Things like the aperture, shutter speed, focal length and ISO value are all available to be referred to later &#8212; sometimes it could be much later. Occasionally I&#8217;m looking through my archives on Flickr and I think &#8220;That looks good, how did I do that?&#8221; The EXIF data is there and I just click through and find out.</p>
<p>For those new to technical terms and important but initially difficult-to-grasp concepts like the relationship between aperture and shutter speed, the benefits of this information are much more immediate and valuable. As soon as you take your shot you can check the EXIF data right away in-camera and perhaps compare to other shots you have just made. For those new to photography this is very useful, especially while out there shooting.</p>
<p>Having your data available to you through an image sharing community like Flickr is convenient, but it&#8217;s also good to check out other&#8217;s EXIF information too. You might see a photograph and think &#8220;I like that motion blur, I wonder what the shutter speed was?&#8221; If the photographer has retained the EXIF data in the file, you can check it out for yourself.</p>
<p>I say &#8220;retained&#8221; because sometimes the data isn&#8217;t there. Images from film cameras don&#8217;t provide EXIF data of course, and some image editors have an option that strips out the data when saving for the internet to keep the file size as small as possible &#8212; so beware of that when saving your files.</p>
<p>So keep an eye on your EXIF data, it&#8217;s an important part of learning about your camera and the more technical aspects of photography in general. But any amount of EXIF data is useless if you aren&#8217;t actually producing it, so get out there get shooting and see you in the Seoul Photo Club on Flickr.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:right;"><em><strong>Oppdatert 26.11.2009<br />
Nye tillegg merket med (*)</strong></em></p>
<p>Har du gjort det fornuftige valget å gå til innkjøp av en <a href="http://www.nokia.no/finn-produkter/produkter/nokia-e71">Nokia E71</a> eller den nye oppfølgeren <a href="http://www.nokia.no/finn-produkter/produkter/nokia-e72">Nokia E72</a> så har jeg noen kjappe tips til programmer som gir deg tilgang til de mest brukte tjenestene på Internett, og ellers annet som kan være nyttig. Vurderer du å kjøpe deg en Nokia smarttelefon (som f.eks. E71 eller E72), så kan du se hvilke muligheter en slik telefon har. Kommenter gjerne innlegget!<br />
<strong>OBS!</strong> De fleste av tipsene her <span style="text-decoration:underline;">fungerer også på andre Nokia-telefoner</span>, spesielt de med Symbian S60 operativsystem (f.eks. N-serien, E-serien, 6210, 6220, 5320, 5630, 6120, 6710 med flere).</p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;"><em><strong>NB!</strong> Alle tips jeg gir her prøver du på eget ansvar. Jeg kan ikke garantere for at alle applikasjoner fungerer på akkurat din telefon. Gjør det til en vane å ta backup av telefonen i ny og ne!</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-219  aligncenter" title="e71" src="http://larssays.wordpress.com/files/2009/03/e71.jpg?w=173" alt="e71" width="173" height="300" /></p>
<p><strong>Nokia Firmware</strong><br />
Firmware er svært forenklet sagt en oppgradering av telefonens operativsystem, og gir for eksempel bedring av kameraets funksjoner, bedring av minnehåndtering, bedring av diverse programvare. Etter at du har installert <em>Nokia PC Suite</em> på din PC, så må du også huske å installere Nokia Software Updater. <em>Nokia Software Updater</em> lar deg sjekke om du har siste firmware på telefonen, hvis du ikke har det vil du bli ført videre til nedlastning/oppgradering av firmware. Husk å gjøre som anbefalt; ta backup før du oppgraderer telefonens firmware. Du kan oppleve at du etter en firmwareoppgradering må installere noen av de programmene du tidligere har installert på telefonen på nytt, men det er jo en enkel operasjon.</p>
<p><strong>Nokia PC Suite</strong><br />
<em>Nokia PC Suite</em> gir deg mulighet til å laste ned/overføre musikk, bildeoversikt, backup, SMS, adressebok med mer og synkronsiering av diverse mellom telefonen og PC.</p>
<div id="attachment_412" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 373px"><img class="size-full wp-image-412" title="pcsuite" src="http://larssays.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/pcsuite.jpg" alt="Nokia PC Suite" width="363" height="488" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Nokia PC Suite</p></div>
<p><strong>Før du installerer ikke-Nokia applikasjoner<br />
</strong>Nokia E71/E72 (og andre) har sikkerhetsinnstillinger som er der for å beskytte telefonen din. Disse innstillingene må du endre på for å få installert enkelte programmer fra andre leverandører, spesielt de som er &#8220;hjemmesnekret&#8221;. Derfor har jeg også nevnt i innledningen at<strong> alle installasjoner gjør du på eget ansvar</strong>. Jeg (og en god del andre brukere) har prøvd disse applikasjonene, men<strong> jeg kan naturligvis ikke gå 100% god for sikkerheten.<br />
</strong>Jeg har forøvrig engelsk språk på min E71, men du finner sikkert ut hvilke menyvalg jeg mener, har imidlertid skrevet det jeg tror det er på norsk i parantes :)</p>
<p>Dette gjør du: Trykk <strong>Meny</strong>, velg <strong>Installations</strong> (Installasjoner?), deretter starter du <strong>App. mgr.</strong> (samme på norsk?). Velg så <strong>Options</strong> (Valg?), deretter <strong>Settings</strong> (Innstillinger?). Så på det øverste valget<strong> Software installation</strong> (Programvareinstallasjon?) må det stå <strong>All</strong> (Alle?), på det neste valget <strong>Online certificate check</strong> (Online sertifikat kontroll?) må det stå <strong>Off</strong> (Av). Trykk så <strong>Exit</strong> (Avslutt?).</p>
<p>Dermed skulle du være klar til å installere det meste. Men vær nå lur å ikke installer hva som helst fra hvor som helst!</p>
<p><strong>Google Apps</strong><br />
Google har som kjent masse snope verktøy, disse får du enkelt tilgang til ved å benytte mobilens nettleser og gå til  <a href="http://m.google.com/app">http://m.google.com/app</a> Der får du automatisk lastet ned <em>Google Apps</em>.</p>
<div id="attachment_413" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 535px"><a href="http://www.google.com/mobile/products.html#p=nokia_smart"><img class="size-full wp-image-413" title="googleapps" src="http://larssays.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/googleapps.jpg" alt="Google Apps" width="525" height="248" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Google Apps</p></div>
<p>Når du kjører <em>Google Apps</em> på mobilen får du tilgang til søk (naturligvis!), <em>Gmail</em>, <em>Google maps</em>, <em>Picasa Web albums</em>, <em>Google News</em> og <em>Google Kalender</em>. Meget kjekt!</p>
<p><strong>Stemmestyrt søk med Google Apps!<br />
</strong>Siste nytt fra Google er at de har integrert <strong>voice search</strong> i søk-delen av<em> Google Apps</em>. Man trykker og holder inne <em>Ring-knappen</em> på telefonen, sier det man vil søke etter (på engelsk) og slipper knappen.<br />
Foreløpig kun på engelsk altså. For å få dette til å virke så må du inn i <em>Options/Settings</em> og velge<em> Country: United Kingdom</em>. Deretter kan du gå ut av menyen og inn igjen, velge<em> Country: Norge</em>, og så sette <em>Yes</em> i <em>Enable Voice Search</em>. Dermed virker stemmesøk på din Nokia, men altså foreløpig kun på engelsk.<br />
Hvis du tidligere har lastet ned <em>Google Apps</em> til din mobil så bør du besøke siden igjen og oppdatere til siste versjon (som nå er <strong>2.03(8)</strong>)</p>
<p><strong>Twitter, Facebook, Flickr med mer</strong><br />
Her anbefaler jeg Snaptü, <a href="http://www.snaptu.com">http://www.snaptu.com</a> Installer programmet og vips så har du Twitter, Facebook, Flickr med mer. Gratis!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.snaptu.com"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-414" title="snaptu" src="http://larssays.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/snaptu.jpg" alt="snaptu" width="570" height="417" /></a></p>
<p>Ellers så fungerer <strong>Twibble</strong> bra for Twitter, <a href="http://www.twibble.de">http://www.twibble.de</a> Men den nye gratis beta-versjonen har mange begrensninger. Fullversjonen koster €4.99.<br />
<strong>Gravity</strong> har fått mye skryt, der har du tilgang på Facebook, Twitter, Twitpic, ping.fm. Koster ca. 55,- kroner. Du finner Gravity <a href="http://mobileways.de/products/gravity/gravity/">her</a>. De har en prøveversjon du kan teste gratis en kort periode.</p>
<p><strong>VoIP &#8211; Skype, Google Talk, MSN, ICQ, Yahoo med mer</strong><br />
Nok en gratis-applikasjon, her anbefaler jeg deg å laste ned <em>Fring</em> fra <a href="http://www.fring.com">http://www.fring.com</a><br />
Når du benytter <em>WiFi</em> (trådløst Internett) så kan du benytte <em>Skype</em> til gratis samtaler til andre Skype-brukere eller betalte (billige) samtaler til vanlige hus- og mobiltelefoner.</p>
<p><strong>Nye oppdaterte kart, gratis bruk!</strong><br />
Anbefaler deg å laste ned <a href="http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/ovi-maps/downloads-and-services">Nokia Ovi Maps</a>. Følg anvisningene. Last også ned <em>Nokia Map Loader</em> fra samme sted. I tillegg kan du naturligvis bare bruke <em>Google Maps</em> som du har tilgang på fra <em>Google Apps</em> som jeg allerede har nevnt.<br />
<strong>NB!</strong> Husk at når du har lastet ned kart fra <em>Nokia Map Loader</em> til din telefon, så trenger du ikke gå online fra kartprogrammet på mobilen når du bruker GPS&#8217;en. Det betyr at det koster ingen ting å bruke kartene da telefonen kun benytter den innebyggede GPS&#8217;en og kartene som er lagret på minnekortet i mobilen. Kjekt!<br />
Når du bruker f.eks. <em>Google Maps</em> må telefonen laste ned kart nesten kontinuerlig fra Internett, det blir fort kostbart.</p>
<p><strong>Gratis og betalbare applikasjoner pluss musikk!<br />
</strong>Besøk <a href="https://store.ovi.com/?lid=storeheader&#38;lang=nb-NO">Nokia Ovi Store</a>, eller aller enklest gå til <a href="http://www.ovi.com/services/">Ovi </a>og registrer deg der. Last ned Ovi Store til telefonen for å få tilgang til alt derfra.</p>
<div id="attachment_410" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 580px"><img class="size-full wp-image-410" title="nokiaovi" src="http://larssays.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/nokiaovi1.jpg" alt="Nokia Ovi" width="570" height="294" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Nokia Ovi</p></div>
<p><strong>Mer om musikk: Nokia Music<br />
</strong>Du kan enten gå via<em> Ovi (se over)</em> eller gå direkte til <a href="http://music.nokia.no">Nokia Music Store</a> fra din PC. Der får du lastet ned <em>Nokia Music</em> til din PC, og du kan begynne å kjøpe og synkronisere musikk mellom <em>Nokia Music</em> og PC/mobil. Du kan opprette spillelister, forhåndslytte (30 sek) på låter du er interessert i, og selvfølgelig kjøpe disse. Du kan bygge opp brennelister og deretter brenne dem til CD. En låt koster for tiden 8,- og et album 80,-. Det finnes også Nice Price hvor du kan få hele album til 59,-.</p>
<div id="attachment_513" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 580px"><img class="size-full wp-image-513" title="nokiamusic" src="http://larssays.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/nokiamusic.png" alt="nokiamusic" width="570" height="398" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Nokia Music på PC&#39;en</p></div>
<p>For å laste musikk rett ned til mobilen fra <em>Nokia Music Store</em> velger du bare <em>Music store</em> i Media-mappen på mobilen. Logg deg på og du har tilgang til det samme som nevnt over.<br />
Du må opprette en konto, og du kan forhåndsbetale et beløp og handle for det (da får du noen låter gratis), eller du kan betale etterhvert som du handler. Som du ser av bildet under får man en gratislåt hver uke, uansett om man kjøper noe eller ei. Blir jo 52 låter på et år, så det er ikke verst <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<div id="attachment_519" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 256px"><img class="size-full wp-image-519" title="e71musicstore" src="http://larssays.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/e71musicstore1.png" alt="e71musicstore" width="246" height="304" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Nokia Music Store på mobilen</p></div>
<p class="mceTemp mceIEcenter" style="text-align:left;"><strong>Nettleser<br />
</strong>Hvis du ønsker en mer avansert nettleser enn den originale fra Nokia så anbefaler jeg <em>Opera Mobile 10 beta</em> som er skreddersydd for <em>Symbian S60</em>. Blant annet kan du bruke<em> klipp&#38;lim</em> mellom nettleser og andre programmer på mobilen. <em>Opera Mobile 10 beta</em> laster sider langt raskere enn tidligere versjoner, har en mye bedre zoom-funksjon, du kan bruke<em> tab&#8217;s</em>, den har en <em>Speed dial</em> som viser opptil 9 sider visuelt med mer. Anbefales! Les mer <a href="http://www.opera.com/mobile/next/">her</a>, eller last den ned ved å gå til <a href="http://m.opera.com/mobile">http://m.opera.com/mobile</a> fra mobilen.</p>
<div id="attachment_510" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 580px"><a href="http://www.opera.com/mobile/next"><img class="size-full wp-image-510" title="opera10a" src="http://larssays.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/opera10a.png" alt="opera10a" width="570" height="429" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Opera Mobile 10 beta</p></div>
<p><strong>Kameratips</strong><strong><br />
</strong>Når du skal ta bilder med mobilen, husk at du får autofokus ved å trykke tasten<strong> T</strong>. Du hører et pip og klammene i skjermbildet blir grønne. Dermed er bildet skarpt og du kan trykke inn Navi-tasten for å ta bildet. Legg også merke til at du har masse innstillingsmuligheter når du er i kameramodus, prøv dem ut!</p>
<p><strong>Snarveier</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Slå på/av <em>Bluetooth</em> ved å holde inne <strong>*</strong>-tasten</li>
<li>Gå rett i nettleseren ved å holde inne <strong>0</strong>-tasten (null)</li>
<li>Hold inne <em>Home</em>-tasten (den med huset på), og du får opp alle programmene du kjører. Bla opp/ned for å velge ett av dem. Husk, du eier en ekte smarttelefon som har full multitasking; du kan kjøre flere programmer samtidig!</li>
<li>Hold inne <em>Kalender</em>-tasten og du kan legge inn en ny avtale direkte.</li>
<li>Hold inne <em>telefonbok</em>-tasten og du kan legge inn en ny kontakt direkte.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>WordPress på Nokia E71/72</strong><br />
Du kan gå via nettleseren på mobilen til <a href="http://m.wordpress.com">http://m.wordpress.com</a>, logge på og få mulighet til å legge inn nye poster på bloggen din. Men WordPress sin mobilside er spinkel for å si det mildt.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.wordpress.com"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-423" title="wordpress" src="http://larssays.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/wordpress.jpg" alt="wordpress" width="263" height="70" /></a></p>
<p>Den beste løsningen jeg har funnet er en egen applikasjon kalt <strong>wordmobi</strong>. Du må laste ned og installere først <em>Phyton 1.9.6 runtime</em>, deretter selve applikasjonen<em> wordmobi 0.9.3</em>. Begge finner du på <a href="http://code.google.com/p/wordmobi/">denne siden</a>.<br />
Du laster som vanlig ned til PC&#8217;en, deretter kan du enten benytte <em>Nokia PC Suite</em> for å installere programmene på mobilen, eller du kan overføre filene via Bluetooth og installere fra mobilen.<br />
Etter du har installert er det bare å starte applikasjonen <em>wordmobi</em>, oppgi brukernavn/passord til <em>WordPress</em>, sett også opp hvilken tilkobling du vil benytte for å koble til Internett (wap, WiFi-punkt). Dette kan du endre når du vil.<br />
<em>wordmobi</em> gir deg stort sett de fleste mulighetene; nytt innlegg, bildevedlegg, kategorier, tags, statistikk med mer. Og som så mye annet snacks til Nokia,<strong> gratis</strong>!</p>
<p><strong>Geotagging av bilder</strong><br />
Dette er en moro funksjon som gjør at du ved hjelp av mobilens GPS kan merke bildene dine med kartkoordinater for hvor bildene er tatt. Deretter kan du f.eks. laste opp bildene til <a href="http://www.flickr.com">Flickr</a> eller benytte kombinasjonen <a href="http://picasa.google.no/">Picasa</a> og <a href="http://earth.google.com/">Google Earth</a>. I Picasa åpner du bildet, deretter klikker du på <em>Plasser geografisk</em>, så tar Google Earth seg av plasseringen automatisk. Stilig!<br />
Du kan selvfølgelig bruke programmet <a href="http://europe.nokia.com/get-support-and-software/product-support/share-online">Share Online</a> på mobilen (fulgte med) for å dele det taggede bildet direkte på f.eks. <em>Nokia Ovi</em>, <em>Flickr</em> eller <em>Vox </em>uten å gå via PC&#8217;en.</p>
<div id="attachment_508" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 183px"><img class="size-full wp-image-508" title="loctag" src="http://larssays.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/loctag.png" alt="loctag" width="173" height="228" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Location Tagger</p></div>
<p>Du må først laste ned og installere programmet <a href="http://betalabs.nokia.com/betas/view/location-tagger">Location Tagger</a> fra <em>Nokia Beta labs </em>på mobilen. Se nærmere beskrivelser på siden. For å få tagget bildene dine må du først starte <em>Location Tagger</em> og la mobilens GPS få kontakt med satelittene. Når det gjør det vil du få <em>Status: GPS locked</em>. Trykk nå hjem-tasten (huset), start så kameraet. Øverst i venstre hjørne vil du se et grønt symbol, noe som betyr at taggingen er klar og har funnet posisjonen din. Den nøyaktige posisjonen vil bli lagret som en del av <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exif">EXIF-informasjonen</a> til bildet.<br />
<em>Location Tagger</em> kan du bare la gå i bakgrunnen, du slipper naturligvis å starte programmet for hver gang du skal ta et bilde.<br />
Som du allerede har skjønt er en av styrkene til E71/E72 at de har multitasking, du kan dermed kjøre flere programmer samtidig. Er du ute og jogger kan du jo bruke radioen eller musikkspilleren på mobilen, ha <em>Location Tagger</em> gående i bakgrunnen og vippe opp telefonen og ta et geotagget bilde når du ser et fint motiv. Mens du hører på radioen/musikkspilleren. God tur!</p>
<p><strong>RSS-lesere</strong><br />
Hva er en RSS-leser? Her et sitat fra<a href="http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS"> Wikipedia</a>: <em>RSS er et enkelt XML-basert filformat som ofte brukes for å </em><em>abonnere</em><em> på </em><em>nyhetsbaserte</em><em> nettsteder. Ved å tilby RSS gir nettstedet brukerene et standardisert format som kan brukes i mange forskjellige RSS-lesere.</em></p>
<div id="attachment_504" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 138px"><img class="size-full wp-image-504" title="rss" src="http://larssays.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/rss.png" alt="rss" width="128" height="128" /><p class="wp-caption-text">RSS-ikonet</p></div>
<p>Hvordan få dette på din mobil? Hvis du allerede bruker <em>Snaptü</em> (se over) til Twitter så har du kanskje merket at <em>Snaptü</em> inneholder flere tjenester. En av dem heter <em>News&#38;Blogs</em>, og det er faktisk en RSS-leser. Der ligger det klar en hel del kanaler (Channels). Du kan slette de du ikke vil benytte og selvfølgelig legge til nye, enten ved å importere fra <em>Google Reader</em>, eller ved på legge til ved hjelp av URL eller ved å søke.<br />
Jeg nevnte her <a href="http://www.google.com/reader/view/#overview-page">Google Reader</a>, som er Google sin RSS-leser. Den kan du enkelt nå fra mobilen ved å besøke: <strong>m.google.com/reader</strong> fra mobilen. Logg deg på med din Google-konto og vips! så har du kontakt med Google Reader og kan bruke den. Virker meget bra på E71/E72.<br />
Det finnes flere RSS-lesere for mobiler, jeg synes disse to fungerer utmerket og begge er gratis, dermed ingen grunn til å lete etter flere <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><strong>Smileys (emoticons) på S60-telefoner</strong><br />
Pussig nok har Nokia valgt å ikke ha med smileys i forbindelse med SMS på smarttelefonene. Riktignok så blir det smiley hos mottakeren hvis du f.eks. skriver &#8220;:-)&#8221; og &#8220;;-)&#8221;, bare husk på å ta med &#8220;nesen&#8221;, altså bindestreket.<br />
En leser spør i kommentarfeltet om nettopp dette, og nevner programmet <strong>My A-SMS</strong> som et mulig alternativ. Jeg har ikke prøvd det, men ser på <em>Q&#38;A</em> på<a href="http://www.myasms.net/index.php"> My A-SMS</a>&#8217;s side at det krever at mottakeren har det samme programmet. Så da utgår jo egentlig det.<br />
Jeg har funnet et program som heter <strong>ThreadSMS</strong> som fungerer på S60-telefoner. Det gir som navnet sier SMS&#8217;ene i en trådoversikt, slik at man holder rede på SMS&#8217;er som er sendt til samme person. I <em>ThreadSMS</em> er det også <em>smileys</em>. Jeg installerte prøveversjonen og har testet den i et par minutter, den gir <em>smileys</em> på innkommende SMS. Men når du skal sende SMS er den sperret. Du må altså kjøpe fullversjonen.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.threadsms.com/threadsms.htm"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-553" title="threadsms" src="http://larssays.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/threadsms.png" alt="ThreadSMS" width="179" height="239" /></a></p>
<p>Programmet kan lestes ned <a href="http://www.threadsms.com/threadsms.htm">her</a> (finnes en gratis prøveversjon, evt. kjøp den). <em>ThreadSMS</em> koster $14.95, altså ca. 85,- kroner.</p>
<p><strong>Sikkerhet<br />
</strong>En profesjonell smarttelefon bør ha flere sikkerhetsfunksjoner, noe f.eks. Nokia E71 har. Jeg vil nevne noen viktige funksjoner her.</p>
<p><strong>Låse mobilen manuelt</strong><br />
Trykk på <em>AV/PÅ</em> tasten, velg <em>Lås telefon</em> i menyen. For å åpne telefonen igjen trykker du venstre valgtast (knappen øverst til venstre) deretter knappen nederst til venstre, så skriver du inn koden. Standard kode er <em>12345</em>. Dermed låses telefonen opp igjen.<br />
Denne koden anbefaler jeg deg å bytte. Det gjør du slik: <em>Meny &#62; Verktøy &#62; Innst. &#62; Generell &#62; Sikkerhet &#62; Telefon og SIM-kort &#62; Låskode</em> Her oppgir du den gamle koden (<em>12345</em>), deretter skriver du inn den nye koden du vil ha. Den kan ha fra 4 til 255 tegn, små og/eller store bokstaver og tall. Lag en avansert kode (og husk den!). Det gjør telefonen sikrere.</p>
<p><strong>Fjernlåse mobilen</strong><br />
Dette er en snop funksjon. La oss si at du har glemt telefonen hos en (u)venn, og ikke vil at vedkommende skal lese dine meldinger eller se dine bilder. Eller la oss si at du rett og slett (krise!) har mistet telefonen. Da kan du holde uvedkommende borte fra innholdet ved å benytte funksjonen <em>Ekstern låsing.<br />
</em>Denne funksjonen må aktiveres først, det gjør du slik: <em>Meny &#62; Verktøy &#62; Innst. &#62; Generell &#62; Sikkerhet &#62; Telefon og SIM-kort &#62; Tillat ekstern låsing &#62; Ja </em>Så skriver du inn meldingen som skal låse telefonen. den må ha minst 5 tegn, f.eks. &#8216;<em>steng E71</em>&#8216;.<br />
Så hvordan bruker du denne funksjonen da? Jo, du sender en tekstmelding til telefonen din som kun inneholder teksten &#8216;<em>steng E71</em>&#8216;. Dermed blir telefonen stengt, og kan kun låses opp med låsekoden nevnt over.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-623 aligncenter" title="Telefonsikkerhet" src="http://larssays.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/mobile-phone-security-software1.jpg?w=150" alt="Bilde lånt fra Mobile Phone Security Software" width="150" height="71" /></p>
<p><strong>Låsing av minnekort</strong><br />
Dette er også en svært viktig funksjon. La oss si at du har mistet telefonen, og at de som finner den ikke klarer å åpne den fordi du var så lur å fjernlåse den (se over). Finneren er alikevel ikke helt idiot, han/hun tar selvfølgelig ut minnekortet ditt og setter det i sin egen telefon eller PC. Så kan de i ro og behag lese innholdet/se alle bildene. Kjipt!<br />
Her er løsningen å låse minnekortet slik: Velg <em>Meny &#62; Verktøy &#62; Minne</em>. Der inne velger du <em>Valg &#62; Angi passord</em>. Passordet kan ha inntil 8 tegn, store eller små. Dette passordet lagres på minnekortet, slik at når du setter kortet inn i en annen telefon eller PC så må passordet oppgis. Dermed får ikke uvedkommende lese innholdet. Skulle du selv glemme passordet kan du bare formattere kortet så blir det (og alt innhold!) borte.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-thumbnail wp-image-624" title="Encryption" src="http://larssays.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/encryption.jpg?w=150" alt="Bilde lånt fra webmastersbydesign.com" width="150" height="99" /> <strong>Kryptering</strong><br />
Vil du heve sikkerhetsnivået enda ett hakk på telefonen så foretar du en <a href="http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kryptering">kryptering</a> av den. Du kan kryptere selve telefonminnet og/eller minnekortet. Det gjøres slik: Velg <em>Meny &#62; Verktøy &#62; Kryptering</em>. Vil du kryptere telefonminnet velger du <em>Telefonminne</em>. Vil du kryptere minnekortet har du flere alternativer, velg det du ønsker i menyen. Dermed blir innholdet kryptert og ingen kan lese innholdet hvis de prøver med sitt eget SIM-kort i din telefon.<br />
<strong>NB!</strong> <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Husk alltid å dekryptere telefonminnet og minnekortet (hvis du har kryptert dem) før du gjør en programvareoppgradering!</span></p>
<p><strong>(*) Facebook på E71/E72</strong><br />
Som nevnt lengre opp i dette innlegget så kan man nå <em>Facebook</em> via <em>Snaptü</em>. Noen har kanskje også lagt merke til at etter oppdatering til siste firmware på e71 så har det dukket opp et Facebook-ikon på telefonen. Dette er imidlertid kun en snarvei til Facebook&#8217;s nettside.<br />
Nå er endelig en Facebook-applikasjon klar for E71/E72, denne laster du ned fra Ovi Store på din telefon. Enkelt og greit! Gir bedre funksjonalitet enn tidligere snarveier til Facebook.</p>
<p><strong>Siste betanytt fra Nokia<br />
</strong>Nokia har siden <a href="http://betalabs.nokia.com">http://betalabs.nokia.com</a> hvor du finner betaversjoner av nye programmer til mobilen. Mye interessant der!</p>
<p><strong>Til slutt&#8230;<br />
</strong>Dette var noen av de tipsene jeg kom på nå, skal oppdatere dette innlegget etterhvert som jeg kommer over mer godstoff til Nokia E71/E72 (og andre Nokia som benytter Symbian S60).</p>
<p>Lykke til med din Nokia!</p>

<description><![CDATA[Picasa 3.5 has just been released to the public. Finally we get the image recognition from picasaweb]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Picasa 3.5 has just been released to the public.</p>
<p>Finally we get the image recognition from picasaweb in the offline version. This is great for me as I don&#8217;t want to upload my private photos to google. But I really dig face recognition.</p>
<p>I have some hints and some questions about Picasa. I hope I&#8217;ll find answers to the questions somewhen.</p>
<p>Hints:<br />
If you tagged a person with the wrong name, you can&#8217;t change the name in the column on the right. You can however click on the name below the rectangle within the picture. You can change the name there.</p>
<p>There is an &#8220;Accept all suggestions as correct&#8221;-button at the top of the person&#8217;s section. I didn&#8217;t see it for a day, so I wanted to point that out. This makes tagging much faster.</p>
<p>Try to get a feeling what Picasa is capable of. Fuzzy pictures make Picasa group persons together that don&#8217;t belong together. In the &#8220;unnamed&#8221; category I found it useful to open the &#8220;people&#8221;-sidebar on the right to quickly check whether all pictures within this group are really by the same person. Unfortunately clicking the text field of a person doesn&#8217;t select it. This makes selecting it an extra click. That&#8217;s annoying. [update]Google released &#8220;Version 3.5, Build 79.69 &#8211; September 30, 2009&#8243;. You can now tab from on group of persons to the next. this will simultaneously mark the person and jump to the name-field. This makes tagging much more convenient.[/update]</p>
<p>Maybe the &#8220;expand groups&#8221;- feature is even better for those blurry pictures, where you aren&#8217;t sure whether Picasa grouped pictures by just _one_ person. You can then select the groups in the sidebar. However, the sidebar will scroll all to often without you initiating it. That&#8217;s also annoying.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;<br />
Questions:</p>
<p>Multiuser scenario.<br />
I read that the face information isn&#8217;t stored in the IPTC field. I had hoped that this would go in a special google-IPTC field. google has/had(?) those for keywords. Keywords would always be stored in the database, in the IPTC keywords field and in the IPTC google keyword field.<br />
Anyway, I read that face information is stored in the database and in the picasa.ini file. There is a picasa.ini file within every directory.</p>
<p>What happens if I move a folder (together with the picasa.ini file) to a new location? [I want to copy photos older than too years to my external harddrive]</p>
<p>What happens if I copy the folder to a different computer? Can I somehow make this work by copying the contacts.xml which contains the names and the emailaddress for the unique identifier number that is listed in the picasa.ini file? (Picasa 3.0 doesn&#8217;t have a subdirectory &#8220;contacts&#8221; within the Local App Data. Picasa 3.5 has a subdirectory containing the contacts.xml file.)</p>
<p>Can I merge my contacts.xml file with the contacts.xml file of some person I give my photos to?</p>
<p>What happens if I sync my picasa contacts with my gmail contacts (default behaviour) and I merge too contacts within gmail?</p>
<p>Anyone having answers to this questions?</p>
<p>In search for an answer on comes across this information:</p>
<ul>
<li>jaysiej, a Google Employee, replys to the question <a title="Go to: Hi all,  Thanks for trying out Picasa 3.5 and thank you for your posts! We've put together this list of common questions on the topics you've addressed that we hope will be helpful to you. ...." href="http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Picasa/thread?tid=0727103717c22cd7&#38;hl=en">&#8220;How to Back up Name Tags&#8221;</a> with Google&#8217;s standard answer you can find in several threads regarding this topic. One of the ways jaysiej says you can back your name tags up, is by copying the whole folder including the picasa.ini. I&#8217;m not sure what happens when you copy this to a computer with a different installation of picasa.</li>
<li>Some guy proposed:<a title="SOLUTION PROPOSAL: People Tag Sharing " href="http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Picasa/thread?tid=4408273cd09909dc&#38;hl=en"> SOLUTION PROPOSAL: People Tag Sharing</a></li>
<li>Andreas Vogel wrote <strong>a program that copies all information from picasa.ini into the XMP field</strong>. I don&#8217;t know whether he does this in a private format or whether he tries to emulate Microsofts XMP person format in the best way he can. Further reading suggests, that the program is saving the information using the XMP tag system created by Adobe with the addition of Microsoft XMP namespace <a title="MSDN: People Tagging Overview" href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee719905%28VS.85%29.aspx">Microsoft Photo Region Schema</a>. This should be readable with the Windows Live Photo Gallery. Go to <a title="AvPicFaceXmpTagger by Andreas Vogel" href="http://www.anvo-it.de/wiki/avpicfacexmptagger:main">AvPicFaceXmpTagger</a> and read for yourself.</li>
</ul>
<p>&#8212;</p>
<p>When will there be a German version? I want my friends to use it. I guess the <a title="Grundlagen zu Picasa: Übersicht der Funktionen von Picasa 3" href="http://picasa.google.de/support/bin/answer.py?hl=de&#38;answer=93773">German changelog is supposed to be this</a>, but I can&#8217;t click the &#8220;Änderungen&#8221;-link.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1298" title="Exiforiginal" src="http://edwinsetiawan.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/exiforiginal1.jpg" alt="Exiforiginal" width="700" height="353" /></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Long time I didn&#8217;t post a photography article in my blog because I busy to work. The other reason is I don&#8217;t have something special that I need to write. This topic actually is a basic for photographer but it is essential ~ since I learn photography by myself, everything I do just read, read, read&#8230;&#8230; and of course try it. After that I write it on my blog ~ I think it&#8217;s good to share your experience for others, life isn&#8217;t just for you but also for others.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">What is Exif? Exif stands for Exchangeable image file format, it is a specification for image file format used by digital camera.  Exif usually content information such as date time information and camera setting. Learn Exif data is a fast way to learn other photography technique, of course learn the technique without good practice is just nothing. Anyway if you interesting about Exif in detail you can go to this <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchangeable_image_file_format" target="_blank">link</a>.</p>
<div style="text-align:justify;"><!--more--></div>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Let see sample photo below, I use ACDsee to see this Exif data, anyway you can use other software to open it, or just right click on your photo and choose properties then choose details.</p>
<div style="text-align:justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1299" title="Exiforiginal2" src="http://edwinsetiawan.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/exiforiginal2.jpg" alt="Exiforiginal2" width="700" height="354" /></div>
<p style="text-align:justify;">See Exif data in detail, I just explain 2 sections that I think important:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Camera section:</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1300" title="camera" src="http://edwinsetiawan.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/camera.jpg" alt="camera" width="338" height="154" /></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<p style="text-align:justify;">Important things in camera section are camera model and date/time. The quality of the photo depend on the camera and lens ~ I agree photographer never blames his camera but I also agree that good photographer with good camera will produce good photograph.  Date/time is important (especially) if you are landscape photographer. For example you want to take photo in Mt. Fuji, it&#8217;s better to check other people photo before you go there. If you learn others people photo you&#8217;ll get information the right time I should go there to take photo.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Image section:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1301" title="image" src="http://edwinsetiawan.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/image.jpg" alt="image" width="337" height="494" /></p>
<div style="text-align:justify;">
<p>Almost all data in the image section are important. I usually learn this section from others photograph ~ it&#8217;s  good to learn the technique and skill from others. If you see my photograph maybe you curious why the bokeh is good, tmaybe you want to ask me &#8211; but you think &#8220;how come he will tell his technique&#8230;&#8221;, anyway the answer already written in Exif data &#8211; just check the aperture value (f number) and focal length. Maybe you also like to know why the lighting and skin tone also nice ~ just check metering mode, white balance setting, and exposure bias. For sport photography and slow speed photography maybe you need to check shutter speed/exposure time. I can&#8217;t explain one by one in detail but I am sure you understand that it should be a reason for a photographer to set some value &#8211; learn it and for sure you will produce good photo.</p></div>
<div style="text-align:justify;">
<p>Of course some photographers won&#8217;t let you learn his technique, so regarding this article maybe other people will criticize me why you teach people to &#8220;steal&#8221; such important information. So I will tell you how to delete the Exif data so other people can&#8217;t see it. The way is too easy, just use photoshop and click File-&#62;Save for Web and Devices. Using this way you can protect your technical photo information. Anyway the option to share or hide your photograph information is on your hand, in my opinion if you like to learn from others, you should like to share to others. Anyway comments, suggestions, critiques are welcome &#8211; thanks for visiting my blog.</p></div>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Geotagging is the process of adding geographical identification metadata to various media such as photographs, video, websites, or RSS feeds and is a form of geospatial metadata. These data usually consist of latitude and longitude coordinates, though they can also include altitude, bearing, accuracy data, and place names.[1]</p>
<p>Geotagging standards in electronic file formats:</p>
<ol>
<li>JPEG photos</li>
<li>HTML pages: ICBM method, RDF feeds, Microformat, Wikipedia, Geotagging in tag-based systems &#38; Geoblogging</li>
</ol>
<p>the most famous API and Application on image geotagging is exiftool. [2]</p>
<p>Geotagging with ExifTool[3]<br />
The ExifTool geotagging feature adds GPS tags to images based on data from a GPS track log file. The GPS track log file is loaded, and linear interpolation is used to determine the GPS position at the time of the image, then the following tags are written to the image:</p>
<ul>
<li>GPSLatitude</li>
<li>GPSLatitudeRef</li>
<li>GPSLongitude</li>
<li>GPSLongitudeRef</li>
<li>GPSAltitude</li>
<li>GPSAltitudeRef</li>
<li>GPSDateStamp</li>
<li>GPSTimeStamp</li>
</ul>
<p>Currently supported GPS track log file formats:</p>
<ul>
<li>GPX</li>
<li>NMEA (RMC, GGA, GLL and GSA sentences)</li>
<li>KML</li>
<li>Garmin XML</li>
<li>Magellan eXplorist PMGNTRK</li>
</ul>
<p>Test Website:</p>
<ol>
<li>http://regex.info/exif.cgi</li>
<li>http://locr.com</li>
</ol>
<p>Examples: [4]</p>
<ul>
<li>READING EXAMPLES</li>
<li>WRITING EXAMPLES</li>
<li>COPYING EXAMPLES</li>
<li>RENAMING EXAMPLES</li>
<li>GEOTAGGING EXAMPLES</li>
<li>PIPING EXAMPLES</li>
</ul>
<p>EXIF stands for &#8220;Exchangeable Image File Format&#8221;. This type of information is formatted according to the TIFF specification, and may be found in JPG, TIFF, PNG, MIFF and HDP images, as well as many TIFF-based RAW images, and even some AVI and MOV videos. [5]</p>
<p>Applications based on exiftool:</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Finally it seems that I&#8217;ve found a pure Java Library that can read and write XMP Data to and from JPEGs!</p>
<p>In the past time I&#8217;ve been googling for such a library repeatedly. There are quite some libraries for just reading <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchangeable_image_file_format">EXIF</a> or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPTC_Information_Interchange_Model">IPTC</a> data. Amongst others are <a href="http://www.drewnoakes.com/code/exif/">Drew Noakes&#8217; library</a> and <a href="http://reader.imagero.com/">Imagero</a>. As I am on the verge of adding more metadata functionality to my self-made image database I had 2 issues:</p>
<ol>
<li>A decision of how to store labels and descriptions to images: a database only without touching the images or IPTC, XMP within images (with cached information to a database). Finally I decided that I wanted to use XMP(or IPTC so that the information is kept close to the image.</li>
<li>A library for this!</li>
</ol>
<p>What I&#8217;ve found so far (incomplete listing as I came across QUITE some libs for reading data):</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://reader.imagero.com/">Imagero</a> and <a href="http://www.drewnoakes.com/code/exif/">Drew Noakes</a>: </strong>Until now I was using Drew Noakes library for reding EXIF data &#8211; which was absolutely okay but couldn&#8217;t write any data <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':-(' class='wp-smiley' />  <a href="http://reader.imagero.com/">Imagero</a> supports writing of IPTC and XMP (from what I&#8217;ve read) and is even free for non-commercial usage. But it&#8217;s not true open source and you need to request a licence every year (which works w/out problems!). Judging the work Andrey Kusnetsov (maintainer of Imagero) is putting into it I think, that&#8217;s quite acceptable.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.adobe.com/devnet/xmp/">Adobe XMP SDK</a>:</strong> Adobe &#8211; as the inventor of XMP &#8211; has released an SDK for reading/writing XMP. Most of the SDK is written in C, the SDK Core is also available in Java (great!) but the functionality to get and write the XMP to and from files .. is not available as Java. Quite annoying.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://commons.apache.org/sanselan/index.html">Apache Sanselan</a>:</strong> When searching for Apache Sanselan you most likely end up at the incubator-site which says that the project is in the stat of migrating into apache &#8211; the mailinglist also doesn&#8217;t work. The simple reason: Sanselan is already a part of <a href="http://commons.apache.org/components.html">Apache Commons</a>. So, this <a href="http://commons.apache.org/sanselan/index.html">new link</a> is the place to go. The most interesting thing of Sanselan is the <a href="http://commons.apache.org/sanselan/formatsupport.html">format support</a>:</p>
<ul>
<li>JPEG IPTC support: read (yes), write (soon), Can read IPTC data from exsiting JPEG/JFIF files WITHOUT modifying image data.</li>
<li>JPEG EXIF: read (yes), write (yes), Can read and write EXIF data to and from exsiting JPEG/JFIF files WITHOUT modifying image data.</li>
<li>XMP: read (yes), write (yes), Can read XMP XML (as as String) from [...] JPEG [...]. Can remove, insert and update XMP XML into existing JPEG files.</li>
</ul>
