The New York Times: "A Photo App That May Be Cooler Than Instagram"
”Jetpac links up with Facebook to allow users to sort and curate photos. And by using new “geo-parsing technology” Jetpac can figure out where photos were taken, even if they aren’t geo-tagged by uploaders. Impressive!”

Frogner Park in Oslo consists of various bridges, fountains and a well known picnic area, popular in the summer for sunbathing, games, and relaxation. The park contains the world famous Vigeland Sculpture Park.
Vigeland Sculpture Park covers 80 acres (320,000 m2) and features 212 bronze and granite sculptures all designed by Gustav Vigeland.
In 1940 the Bridge was the first part of the Sculpture Park to be opened to the public.
58 of the park’s sculptures reside along the Bridge. All are clad in bronze and contribute to the Human Condition theme of the park. Here visitors will find one of the park’s more popular statues, the Angry Boy (Sinnataggen).
At the highest point in the park lies the park’s most popular attraction, The Monolith (Monolitten). Construction of the massive monument began in 1924 when Gustav Vigeland himself modeled it out of clay in his studio in Frogner.
