So Facebook now owns (or soon will own) Instagram.... http://9to5google.com/2012/04/09/facebook-acquires-photo-sharing-app-instagram-for-1-billion/ Like political campaign promises, I look forward to watching this particular promise be broken (in bold below): Facebook only lets you have one...

Photoshop is great, but it’s also expensive and usually you don’t need the full power of Photoshop for any given task. For example, I often just need to resize images for emailing, but find the tools in Microsoft’s Picture Manager far too basic. PIXLR to the rescue! I have been playing with...

This is kinda neat, but you gotta watch it to the end to understand why: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD7eagLl5c4&feature=youtube_gdata_player

I dig it. Love the retro look, and swappable lenses! http://www.fourcornerstore.com/products/gizmon-ica-military

I really have no idea how they did this, but this stop motion video is incredibly well done: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CWOebTREVU&feature=youtube_gdata_player

I was surfing some of the online videos that showcase what's going to be included in the forthcoming Photoshop 6 release. Amazing stuff. Totally revamped GUI, totally overhauled Camera Raw processor, multithreading on steroids, and lots of new built in features such as Tilt-Shift blur, more...

I'd like to post a positive review of a company based on a recent experience. I have a trip to Costa Rica coming up (tomorrow actually), and decided only this Monday that I really should bring a lens more suited to the jungle environment (something with a zoom) instead of my ultra wide walkabout...

I have two tires I purchased for my trailer to match my tow vehicle, then I had to sell the tow vehicle! Now these nice 35" tires do not match the family SUV :-) These tires are about 1 year old, and have under 1,000 miles on them. They are currently mounted, but I intend to keep the rims, so...

I am frustrated by my efforts in working with digital video. The frustration is on the software side. I have a Canon 7D with good lenses, and a very fast, far too expensive 32GB memory card. I know I could spend thousands on accessories to take better video, but that is not my problem...yet...

This might be of interest to some of you: http://news.smugmug.com/2011/10/24/publish-to-your-facebook-business-pages-too/ I personally do not use or visit Facebook, but I love SmugMug!

I'm gaining weight and have bad knees. Running is out, need to start biking more. I have a mtn bike that I hate. I used to be way into BMX back in the day (was 14th in the nation 25 years ago LOL), and my 13 year old son has just discovered BMX in a big way (street riding mostly though, ugh)...

I am seriously contemplating buying a new MacBook Air for my work. I am employed by a company that requires me to travel, but they want to give me a an 8lb brick of a laptop with a 20 minute battery. I disdain such cumbersome devices, as I am often walking back and forth well over a mile from...

To emphasize a point made on this forum frequently, the best camera to own is the one you have when you need to take a picture. Here is a neat little story: http://mashable.com/2011/05/16/endeavour-launch-twitpic/ There's a video too.

This is an interesting camera. Takes the unit that Tom Sheppard wrote about in OJ a few months back to a whole new level. The sensor is part of the lens, and you buy lens modules at whatever focal lengths you want. No dust spots, ever. No telescoping, dust bellow pumping, battery robbing...

I thought this was kinda interesting, for all you wannabe bushman out there :-) Winchester 70 Custom Safari Express African Big 5 (Serial #4)...
