Editing the photos in iPhone is no more a tough task to do. Adobe Systems released its official iPhone app Photoshop.com Mobile in October. This was initially released, in October, only for US and Canada users. It is now made available for all global users.

Photoshop.com Mobile is a free iPhone app that offers some cool basic photo editing features.

According to iTunes Store, top edit features available in this app are as follows

Basics : Crop, Rotate and Flip

Colour : Exposure, Saturation, Tint, Black and White

Filters : Sketch, Soft Focus

Effects : Vibrant, Pop, Border, Vignette Blur, Warm Vintage, Rainbow, White Glow, Soft Black and White

It is really great to have all these features bundled into a single free app. We hope that there will be more features added to the list.

I have used a couple of apps to edit the pictures I take through iPhone. Now this single free app replaces all other apps.

The best part I like in this app is that all these effects are made available based on the swipe. There are no buttons, dials and select boxes. All we need to to is just a swipe from left to right in the screen.

In the short span of time, this app holds the first place in Free Photography app category.

You can download this free app from Apple iTunes Store – Photoshop.com Mobile

Regular Expression is a pattern describing a certain amount of text. Regular expressions are a language of their own.

Wiki defines Regular Expression as follows,

In computing, regular expressions provide a concise and flexible means for identifying strings of text of interest, such as particular characters, words, or patterns of characters. A regular expression (often shortened to regex or regexp) is written in a formal language that can be interpreted by a regular expression processor, a program that either serves as a parser generator or examines text and identifies parts that match the provided specification.

You would have come across the regular expressions patterns regardless of the programming language (Java, .Net, PHP, etc.,).
