Missing 2013 already? View your most popular Instagram photos last year in a short video

Add as a preferred source on Google

As we enter another new year, some of you – depending on how well 2013 went – might already be feeling nostalgic. Thanks to social media, we can look back fondly at all our shenanigans (you can’t deny that you tweeted several times, asking “what does the fox say,” it’s on the record). Facebook, for example, lets users create a “Year in Review” of the best stuff that happened last year (just go to your page and click on the “Year in Review” banner). For Instagrammers who can’t let go of the past, Statigram has a tool that takes your five most popular Instagram photos of 2013 and turns them into a short video.

Satigram, an Instagram-tracking service, determines what’s popular based on likes. To use the feature, you’ll need to link your Instagram account to Statigram (your Instagram pics will need to be public, obviously). Statigram will e-mail you the video, which you can then repost to Instagram or wherever.

If your year wasn’t so great, you can still check out other users’ best-photo videos by searching the #memostatigram tag.

Google releases big v4.0 update for its popular Snapseed editing app on Android
Electronics, Phone, Mobile Phone

After years of sitting on its hands, Google appears to have remembered it owns one of the best photo editing apps on mobile. Snapseed 4.0 is now rolling out to Android, bringing the platform up to speed after a stretch of iOS exclusivity that left Android users watching from the sidelines.

The story starts last June, when Google quietly broke Snapseed out of its long dormancy with a significant 3.0 update for iPhone. It was a surprise move that suggested the company was serious about the app again. Google then confirmed at the start of this year that Android wouldn't be left behind for long, and true to that word, the Play Store listing has now been updated to reflect version 4.0 — skipping straight past 3.0 for Android users and landing both platforms on the same version simultaneously.

Whether it is dark circles from a late night of work, a blemish that showed up uninvited, or something similar that could use additional brightness, Google Photos now has you covered.

Google has officially rolled out a new Touch Up suite inside its Photos app editor, integrating face retouching tools directly into the app for the first time. Previously, such adjustments were only available inside Google’s Camera app at the time of capture.
