Just came across this today. The photo of the Hays County courthouse is mine (that’s Mr. Jeanson, not Ms.) and was given to the editors of texasescapes.com for use on their website. I did not give anyone else permission to use the photo. I find many of my courthouse photos elsewhere on the internet, most with credit. If they don’t ask permission, they can at least give me credit. That’s all I ask.

Hey, first time I hear of this. No, he did not have a special license. Interesting.

Admit it dude – you were really just taking a picture of your bike…

Cool bike, but I looked that the photo album posted on Facebook. Most of the shots were from the behind and not that impressive. While I don’t mind looking at K.P.’s derrière for a couple of photos, it seemed as if the photographer was not really part of the event, just someone with too much technology in his smartphone and not enough smarts to know what is a good photo.

Hope you are enjoying the new gig at FB.

Google is like that too. Not just celebrities though. Literally busloads of visitors wander the hallways with guides pointing out this and that.

I was always puzzled what these “tech tourists” really expect to see.

“Hey, went to to see the Google (Facebook/Twitter/etc) offices yesterday”.
“Cool, what did you see ?”
“Ahh. People sitting on their desks, staring at computers and typing.”
“Okay.”

Found your web site and blog because of a reference by Dmitry Baranovskiy, that gave you credit inspiration and background that he has leveraged in his excellent work.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. They are very meaningful to me and I will share with my son.

If I wrote from my experiences, I might rightfully title it “Poop Painting”:<)

Comment on Reading Library EPub Books on a Kindle by Steve

Wow. This was keeping me from buying a Kindle. Thanks.

I agree with your assessment about accessing content when, where, how . . . It is Amazon that does not want to open their reader up to library-based content because it keeps their users in their store.

Here’s an apt analogy: if I checked out a cassette from the library and only had a CD player, would it be ok if I burned a CD to listen to it?
