Yep, can you imagine all this technology for under a hundred and fifty bucks? Stop wasting time pople switch to a Mac and stop supporting the copy cat Gates. Half a decade to upgrade Windows XP?! 4 different versions of the OS?! And costs up to $400?!?! Roflmao! Youre kidding me right? Get Mac’s OS X and just worry about ONE version that does EVRYTHING you need. Never been a virus for Mac OSX, never will be.Īnyway, get with the times people. Letting you get your tasks done quickly effeciently, and most of all, just lets you worry about your stuff and not variables like viruses. Mac OS X is just plain elegant and powerful.
Macs dont let you worry about viruses, spyware, pop-ups, blue screens of death….the list goes on. The day when Microsoft was the ONLY real choice for computer operating systems is coming to a fast close. We talked about his life, Microsoft and his passion for photography.Ĭome on are there really people still using Windows products? Havent we all learned this one?! Zune? You ean iPod? Vista? You mean Mac OSX dont you?! Update 2: I just did an interview with the Flickr man himself, Hamad Darwish. Update: Raymond Chen have some other bits about the process. Of course, there will be certain licensing and legal issues to overcome, but I bet some enthusiasts will do anything to get their works displayed on such a scale.Ĭertainly interesting times ahead for enthusiasts like Hamad and Thomas Hawk. In a way, “ Show us your Wow” is already a test-bed for user-submitted content and community feedback with over 20,000 entires submitted. Hopefully Microsoft might even consider expanding the program to allow for public submissions of photographs and creatives to be included in future editions of Windows. This new approach to sourcing and licensing creatives is exciting not only because amateur and enthusiast now have the chance to showcase their works to millions and millions of people – something even the most prestigious art gallery cannot offer, but also recognition of community-driven websites such as Flickr for the ability to deliver quality ‘products’ equal to or even better than from traditional content companies.
About 5 images came from Microsoft full-time employees.Not only did Jenny ask the Flickr photographers if they could license their images, she also sent them on a commissioned photoshoot.There are a handful from amateur Flickr photographers (which are Jenny’s favorites).About 2/3rds of the collection is licensed from stock houses.Some interesting statistics on the selection process: Photographs by Flickr user Hamad Darwish.
