Revue is an application that I wrote for the iPhone and iPod touch that allows you to browse your favorite photo websites, such as photoblogs, all in one place. Kind of like a news reader tailored to photography: you subscribe to the sites you're interested in, you launch updates when you're online, and you browse the images when you want to, even when offline.

I just purchased this and I think it's really great. Some of the blogs
in the catalogue I had lost touch with, so it will be good to see them
again.
Some of my favourite blogs are missing from the catalogue, but I guess
that's always going to happen. My blog doesn't work with it either,
but I think that may be an expressions issue?!
One feature I think would be really cool, being able to see a few more
posts from one blog. When it's a blog I've not heard of I like to make
a "subscribe" choice after more than one image. I guess you can always
remove it if it's not what you hoped for.
A great app and I really hope it's popular and you can grow and
improve it further.

I bought this before my iPhone arrived! I think it is great, so many
thanks for creating it.
One question, is it possible to add a 'mark all read' button, it seems
the only way to mark them all read is to watch the slideshow and wait
for it to get to the end unless I'm missing something.

This looks really interesting. I look forward to checking it out. My
photoblog list is usually something I avoid on the iPhone, even 3G.
It just feel cramped to me, but from what I see this is different. It
would be nice to be able to keep up.
Are you going to set up a way for people to submit their website?

I know that this sort of email is perhaps not strictly in the remit of photoblogging, but I'm hoping Brandon will let it slide.
I am a semi-professional photographer based in the UK. I am trying to make a living out of something that I love (photography!), but like everyone else, I am finding it very difficult at the moment.
Wedding photography is probably my biggest area of work, to date it is where 90% of my photography work has come form. But at present, I don't have enough weddings.
The website was designed by myself and build by a friend, for next to nothing - a couple of years ago now.
It's served it's purpose and has been great - but I've been told that it could be improved upon, especially in how it is put together to help make it more friendly for search engines. I've been thinking about asking around for a developer to re-build the site in something like wordpress, with an integrated blog. But wonder whether the current site just needs a few tweaks, like...
1) adding a links page 2) adding in a wordpress blog as a sub-domain (if possible?) 3) also a new system for the slideshow gallery. Something easier to update, as I no longer have Flash to use Slideshow Pro in, so making updates impossible, arrgghhh!
I'd be really grateful to hear any of your suggestions, either from programmers or photographers.
