First, this version of Qik allows you to pull videos right from your iPhone 3GS Camera Roll and upload them to your Qik account. So if you’ve recorded videos with the iPhone 3GS native camera, you can share those via Qik, too. Qik is the only iPhone 3GS app to let you share videos from your camera roll straight to your blog, website, Facebook, YouTube, and all the other networks Qik integrates with.

Once you’ve stopped recording, your video upload begins automatically – without the hassle of pushing any more buttons or filling out any form fields.

Qik is the first mobile video app to let you frame your videos either horizontally or vertically. w00t!

At this time, besides no streaming, this app also only works over Wi-Fi. You have to wait for its 3G capability. “We’ve submitted an update to the App Store which will have it working over 3G networks, too,” a Qik blogger said. Good job!

Here’s how it works [taken from their website]:

• Invite: Start a run at DunkinRun.com from your computer, mobile device, or our iPhone application . You are now “the runner”, and pick which friends you’d like to invite by providing their email or mobile phone number (no spaces or dashes e.g. 1234567890).
• Order: Select what you want from the menu, and we’ll contact your friends and tell them to do the same.
• Run: Go get the goods. We’ll compile all orders for you, and you can print it out or have it sent to your mobile device (if you print it, just hand the print out to the Dunkin’ crew member at the shop and they’ll take it from there).
• Enjoy! Bring the goodies back, and enjoy the deliciousness, along with the hero worship from your friends.

Stanley Kirk Burrell (born March 30, 1962), better known by his stage names MC Hammer and Hammer, is an American multi-platinum selling MC and dancer most popular during the late 1980s until the mid-1990s.  He became a preacher in the late 1990s,  then co-founder of a dance website, television show host and CEO.

Here is the list of what this world-shaking app can do (as Gizmodo wrote):

1. Watch the music video for “Pumps and a Bump.”
2. Follow Hammer’s latest exploits on Twitter, like: “My Wife better be ready when Daddy get home !!! Too Sexy Fo My..”
3. Read Hammer’s blog, which in a feat of synergy is pretty much just his Twitter but with videos.

If you are a big fan of him, I bet you can’t hardly wait to install Hammer Time in your lovely gadget. Moreover, this app is available for free from the iTunes store. Yes, you CAN touch this! :-)
