Current podcast/blog entry is on the topic of 'the Zone system' which is a way of thinking about scenes in terms of exposure and how the light sensor in your camera works. Very educational and useful.

Adobe Lightroom to be released mid-Feb

For those of you looking to spend lots of money on a photo-workflow app:

Feb 16 19 is the target release date, and the price is USD$299

Which, coincidentally, is the exact same price as Apple Aperture is RRP'ing for.

Time: Reviews Vista

TIME magazine knows all

Why Vista is irrelevant.

I'm a Mac. I'm a PC - PC bites back

LOL. To be fair, I actually like Apple's "I'm a Mac, I'm a PC" ads. But these are classic and probably more honest.
