France Telecom R&D is testing an instant scrapbook service for tourists that lets visitors point-and-shoot their cell phones at kiosks to create online photo albums and travel journals. Canned monument info can be added to personal photos, video and other data to create custom web sites about one's vacation. The service is being tested with 500 French and English-speaking tourists vacationing in Corsica and the French Riviera. This trial will begin on August 4 in Corsica and continue in September on the French Riviera. Presumably all the English-speaking tourists are English, Canadian, Australian or New Zealanders, as Americans don't go to France anymore.
