Camera✓ has been growing on me, mostly because it looks really cool when
it shows up on your phone in different places.

However, even when just typing this email, it was hard to remember how
to do the unicode ✓ symbol, and I had to google it. Does not bode well
for day to day use of it ... much like "the artist formerly known as
Prince", i think this might be "the camera formerly known as
informacam".

I have been thinking more about the CameraV idea (emoji ✌) with V
meaning Verified, but also V as in "Visible", "Veritas" and perhaps
"Victory"

That whole tradition of Japanese people flashing "peace signs" in photos
is actually them flashing "victory" or "happiness" signs.

I know it can also mean an insult if you have your hand turned around,
but.. come on!

"A new type of camera is watching. One that sees truth, one that listens
for fact, looks and gathers the visible and the invisible. It senses and
signs, so that when it matters, you can believe what your eyes have
seen. CameraV: Veritas Visio!"
