See? I’m Not a Mooch…

In a recent comment, I mentioned that I try to write about photography in ways that are universally applicable. Not this time. This is a photo-specific, techno-geeky post.

Livebooks is a Flash-based application, and has become somewhat of an industry standard. As I have a very strong bias against Flash in most cases, I won’t be a subscriber. But that doesn’t stop me from visiting their site. They are maintaining a really good blog on the industry as a whole. I particularly liked their latest post that deals with something all photographers are wrestling with right now:

Five video-savvy photogs weigh in on still vs. motion

It’s a balanced, though-out understanding. Stills and motion are similar. But different. But similar.

Props where they’re due. I hope Livebooks is doing putting this out there without expecting that everyone reading it going to become a client. That would be disappointing on both sides…
