Jeff sent me to an very interesting article on Digital Blending, a technique that allows you to capture a larger dynamic range for any given photo. I’ve had this problem a lot and I’m pretty geeked to try it out. Now I just need some photos to try it on..
A friend at work just sent me an article on CNN about the first prosecuted case of Spam Rage, where a guy became so upset over a non-stop barrage of e-mails claiming to help him increase the size of his member that he flipped out and started threatening people.
However, my favorite quote from the article has to be this one: “Mackay said such firms gave a bad name to the penis enhancement business.”
Over at style.com, they have a great piece on redrawing the map of California to accurately correlate the number of voters in each county to the size of the county and then use some nifty shading techniques to better communicate how the voting went during the recent recall election. Fascinating stuff!
As my officemate Mike put it, “This is why I don’t try to lift 157 kilos out of a snatch.”
