1-Hour Photo: an app that makes you wait to "develop" your mobile photo

Instant gratification has changed the dynamics of photography. Instead of waiting for hours, days, or months to view a photo, users can see the immediate results from their camera on their camera.

With smartphones, this immediate gratification also results in immediate sharing using apps. Of course, there’s now an app that can help you limit just how instantaneous your gratification can be filled: 1-Hour Photo.

One hour photography processing is still pretty fast for print standards, but it’s still much slower than Instagram.
