James Pomerantz is blogging his days in photo MFA Land. Here’s a recommended photography related reading list from his program Image Journal – faith and art. I just subscribed to their feed and am looking into picking up a subscription to their quarterly journal. They have also just released Bearing the Mystery: Twenty Years of Image. I noticed my feeds…

Links for Monday
Twelve rolls of film processed over the weekend and I’m almost done editing. Then on to scanning. I have a little work to do to clean up my file management structure. I’m trying to get things organized before they get too far out of control. I’m thinking about utilizing Adobe Bridge to manage metadata. I have a book problem and…

Scoble on Twitter lists – changing the way he consumes news. War Is Personal, by Eugene Richards – from The Nation. “A good photojournalist is also someone who reads a lot and understands the world at more than a superficial level. And who is sceptical about what’s going on” – Eugene Richards. Lieca’s obsesson with special editons – I have…
Links for Saturday – Drupal updates and more
I needed to update my Drupal installation for The Nonprofit News Network site so I decided to tackle that this morning. I was in a bit of a hurry (first mistake) and so I backed up my sites/ directory first then ran the Fantastico update script (I did the original install with this tool so figured I should use it…

From the Business Insider, “If you are not embarrassed by the first version of your product, you’ve launched too late“. I need to create a nonprofit Twitter list for npnewsnetwork. Insert photo test. I know it is not ready for primetime yet, but I can’t get Lifeliner to “save”. I keep getting this error, “Can’t find a sub-table named “textRouter””.…
Test post with the OPML editor
This is a test post using the OPML editor. I’m interested in using this to post to Twitter and my blog. Mostly links and some longer pieces every once in awhile. The OPML editor is an outliner at heart – with several interesting new features. This is a second level.
The Nonprofit News Network: A nonprofit news aggregation site built with Drupal
I just recently launched the Nonprofit News Network, a news aggregation site focused on the world of nonprofits. Why you might ask? Well, first of all I have an interest in the business of nonprofits. I was also looking for a technical project that would allow me to develop a news aggregation site using open source tools. In this case…
I have neglected you…
I need to pay more attention to this place and less to twitter. I’ll post some new content soon. I’m thinking about a piece on purchasing a rangefinder camera. I have learned a lot along the way and someone out there might find it useful. I’m also thinking about an aggregation project with an implementation in Drupal. We’ll see…
Bill Jay: 1940-2009
I learned this morning that Bill Jay died. When I was attending Arizona State University and majoring in photojournalism, I had to take Jay’s photo history classes as part of my schedule. If I remember correctly, the class met once a week for 2 or three hours. I have to confess it was probably the only class that I never…
Where’s David Burnett’s Ermanox?
I read this post by David Burnett this morning where he shares some photos he shot with his Ermanox. I’m probably one of the few photo geeks out there who has ever heard of the camera let alone knows that Erich Salomon used one to capture those little “snippets of time” from history. Later in the day, my friend Tony…
