The Hyena Man, who looks like he roams “the wastes, scavenging for what scarce little water remains in that desolate landscape, fending off marauding bands of Junk Raiders.”

Talk about results! Just the other day I dinged Panasonic for not having a movie mode in the Micro-4/3rds-system G1, and today they fixed the issue with the new DMC-GH1. Kidding — we knew it was coming — but the good news is that this new camera combines videos and stills in ways that Nikon and Canon should pay attention to.

What more could you have done? You could have competed more effectively. Owens complains about “substitute home pages,” where the Boston.com was trying to take away GateHouse’s readers. There’s a pretty straightforward response to that: if that’s all it takes to take away your community, you’ve failed your community. If the entire value of your site was in providing the headlines and ledes, and someone else copying those headlines and leads causes you to lose the community, you haven’t been providing enough value to that community, and you deserve to lose it. Newspapers have neglected their biggest asset, their own communities, for way too long, and this is another example of that. If GateHouse provided a better service where the value went beyond the headline and the lede, there wouldn’t be concerns about how such “copying” would take away from GateHouse.

In the Sunna, the other major holy Muslim book together with the Quran, the pictures of living beings are condemned. “Whoever makes a picture will be punished by Allah. He (the picture maker) will be ordered to breathe life into the picture, but he will not be able to do so”. This is a piece that explores the relationship between photography and Islam.

It’s a common misconception amongst photographers that Search Engine Optimization (SEO) means that when you type in your name into Google, your own website comes up at the top of the results. Nothing could be further from the truth.
The goal of SEO is to increase unsolicited traffic to your website.

Paul Graham was one of the very first British documentary photographers to work in colour. His first major series of pictures, made in 1981-2 along the A1 motorway in England, later published as A1 – the Great North Road, caught the country on the cusp of a new mood. In the motorway cafes of the industrial north, customers, mainly men, sat alone, detached from and somehow mocked by the brightly coloured, pre-formed plastic interiors, the brand names and neon signs.

I am staying as far away from this as possible. Let Canon Inc. handle it themselves, it’s their mess after all. Suffice to say that I really hope that this new autofocus fix for the 1D Mark III is going to solve your problems.

somehow Newspaper Death Watch escaped my view. The site, created by long-time technology journalist Paul Gillin, chronicles the usually bad news about newspapers, and has been doing so since 2007
