This post is news, and is for people already using Google+. They have a new interesting feature:
If you take a series of photos of a caver in different poses in a cave passage, or on rope in a pit and send those to your Google+ album, then Google+ will automatically create an animation of all those photos like a cartoon. ( and maybe keep it on their server for you for future eyes to see ? ) This file is called an animated gif. http://techcrunch.com/2013/05/15/google-photos-can-now-automatically-create-animated-gifs-panoramas-hdr-images-and-better-group-shots/ You can't miss it when you open up your photo album. Someone could probably make an interesting caving presentation with this since it appears one can manipulate the file. With an Android phone camera, this all happens automatically as soon as taking a bunch of pictures while you have internet service, and presume it works the same on an iPhone. I don't know if Google+ does this when you download photos there with a regular digital camera. David Locklear Ref: Supposedly, your profile photo on Google+ can be animated. https://plus.google.com/communities/106368006447834107693
