Self-publishing company, Blurb, is launching a free mobile app that lets people tell and share creative stories in new ways, reports Mashable. The app will let users create shareable stories using photos, videos and audio sourced from their devices; they'll be able to rotate, crop, scale, sequence events via drag-and-drop, incorporate geotags and otherwise edit mobile story content as they see fit. Resulting stories can then be shared as digital booklets via email, Facebook or Twitter. Definitely a fun tool if you're stuck in an airport with hours of delays and plenty of content on your phone, but beyond that, I believe creating engaging stories is a fine craft that most people won't be able to master on the move.
