Found Footage: iPod Panorama
I stumbled across this video on YouTube, which shows a cool panoramic scrolling effect on an iPod. It comes from website Ben+Marc, which offers a complete write up on how they created the effect. They set up a camera on a tripod and took a series of pictures, snapping each one with about a 5 to 10% overlap to build a 360-degree revolution. After, on their computer, they edited the photos to create the near-seamless joins. Cool stuff. Enjoy the video.

For those interested in a more serious VR tool than Photoshop's stitcher, check out Kekus Digital's Calico.

Looks more like a 95% overlap to me (i.e. shot 2 is only very slightly different to shot 1). Quite effective result though.
