The Last Goodbye: How To Shut Down A Failing Product

The Last Goodbye: How To Shut Down A Failing Product By Kevin Stone May 19th, 2014 BusinessProduct Strategy 6 Comments The true power of the web has always depended on the open nature of its technology. Anyone who’s interested can create a website, and anyone with an idea could turn out the next Facebook. Technology takes no heed of gender, creed or race, but is reduced down to code and the desire to create. This great power has produced unbounded enthusiasm, and everyone you meet has an idea for the “next great website or app.” Buried...

Using Balance in Your Landscape Photography Composition

A Post By: Gavin Hardcastle If you want to take your landscape photography to the next level, it’s time to start thinking about how you balance your subjects. The most powerful compositional tools that you have at your disposal are your knees, and your feet. Simply stepping to the side a couple of feet can change your landscape compositions drastically. Take things one step further (weak pun intended) and bend those old knees to get a lower point of view. Now things might start to look more interesting. The reason why I say this is because...

Real Estate Photography – a Guide to Getting Started

A Post By: Charlie Borland Photography has never been more important to selling real estate than it is today.

If you are new to real estate and architecture photography, here are some general guidelines to start you on the right path.

Walmart sues photographer’s widow

Actually, I listen sports talk radio & classic rock if you must know. I’m also more libertarian than conservative, but don’t let that stop you from applying a stereotype you have dreamed up. So you wake up in your parents basement somewhere around 11 or 12, and if your lucky and it’s the 1st or the 15th, you put on your house shoes and head out to the mailbox to collect your check that people like me fund. You come in, catch up on your Media Matters reading and turn on MSNBC to be told what to think and what to be...

Centr captures 360-degree video at 4K resolution

We’ve seen a few interesting panoramic camera projects over the past few months but none of them capture panoramic video. Centr, which was launched by former Apple engineers and currently in the Kickstarter stage, is aiming to fill this gap. The camera is a doughnut-shaped device that records 360-degree video at 4K resolution and 60 frames per second.   This is achieved by stitching together footage from four separate full-HD camera modules in real time. The resulting video can be interactively seen on a special viewer on the...

Sony RX100 III: A look at the operation and controls

Posted by on 20th, May, 2014 in Blog | 0 comments

I can’t help bu think that people are just barking at the wrong tree with this wheel.. IMHO it’s not the wheel, but the overall design (wheel + its UI) that is, well, sub-par, to say the least. I would have loved it, clicks or not, if not this awkward behavior of first entering the, say, zoom mode with first rotation, and only then, with second rotation, actually changing the focal length (in fixed focal lengths mode). Imaging you drive a car, turn steering wheel, and the car, instead of turning, displays nice diagram on HUD with...

Moving A Git Repository To A New Server

Moving A Git Repository To A New Server By Nik Sumeiko May 19th, 2014 GitTutorialsVersion control 3 Comments Suppose your company decides to change its code-hosting provider or you wish to move your own Git repository to a different host. It doesn’t happen often, but it happens. When I had to move a number of Git projects to a new host, it took me quite some time to find an accurate method. Having made many attempts, and a couple of fails, and carefully reading Git’s documentation, I found a solid and effective way. I thought, then, that...

Design Principles: Space And The Figure-Ground Relationship

Part TwoDesign Principles: Space And The Figure-Ground Relationship By Steven Bradley May 16th, 2014 CreativityDesign PrinciplesInspiration 9 Comments If you see graphic design as a process of arranging shapes on a canvas, then you’re only seeing half of what you work with. The negative space of the canvas is just as important as the positive elements that we place on the canvas. Design is an arrangement of both shapes and space. To work more effectively with space, you must first become aware of it and learn to see it — learn to see the...

Team Collaboration And Closing Efficiency Gaps In Responsive Design

Team Collaboration And Closing Efficiency Gaps In Responsive Design By Brian Krall May 15th, 2014 MobileResponsive Web DesignWorkflow 2 Comments Responsive design ushers in complexities that require a more involved design and implementation process. Because of this, the effort has piled up on the front end. Working in silos, where you talk to each other only occasionally or during scheduled meetings, has too many unknowns. Let’s look at how these new challenges create opportunities to work together better. We have to kill the mentality that...

A Look Inside the Bag of a Hobby Photographer on a Budget

A Post By: John Davenport We often get to see inside the bags of professional photographers. You know, the bag that we dream of having ourselves, filled with three full-frame bodies and six or more lenses with plenty of accessories to fill out every pocket the bag has to offer. Well, I’m not a pro – and today’s ‘inside the bag’ post might not be something to drool over, but it should give you an idea of what you can do on a reasonable budget if you’re planning to do some serious photography on the weekends. Inside the bag of a...

Never forget a Photoshop or Lightroom shortcut again

Posted by on 19th, May, 2014 in Blog | 0 comments

Nice job! CC: For LR it would be great if the global buttons were available in the shortcut mapper for every module. For example I’m in the library module and want to know the short cut for crop, I should not have to go looking around for it, it’s right there on the R key in the library module but with your system I need to bop over to the develop or global module to see how to crop from the library module. This would make the tool a better workflow aid (something to have up while using LR) instead of a learning module (Now I will...

Stream your photos… via backpack?

Posted by on 19th, May, 2014 in Blog | 0 comments

There are ways to do this much more simply and more compact as long as you’re willing to go with just one cellular network at a time and keep an eye on it. No backpack required – just your pockets, or a pocket of the backpack/camera bag you already use. The truth is you should have all 4 cellular networks at your disposal when possible – there are places where only one network works that well, and it could be any of them. This cellular bonding technology can be essential for video, but can be overkill in many photo...
