Apple is BIG!
How big exactly? Mashable has posted a great article on exactly how big with a nice infographic to help our tiny little minds fathom the immense scale...

How many photos are taken each year?
A fascinating statistic is that Facebook users upload an entire Flickr's worth of images each month!
Second fascinating fact - the quality of images worsens as the colour lightens ;)

iPhone magic
I find it amazing that a simple iPhone & Hipstamatic can produce a shot like this with the tap of a finger. Suddenly anyone can be an artist. Check out more on my Flickr.

Google Instant Preview
The big G has launched the new Instant Preview feature a week or so ago. Basically it gives you a small screenshot of search result with the search term highlighted within the image for your viewing pleasure.
Although quite a nifty little feature, there's a few questions being raised from an SEO point of view.
Firstly, if searchers can preview your page before deciding to click through, does this impact on the number of visits that you'd normally receive? We're assuming that normally a person would click on the link, then quickly scan your site before deciding to bounce away if they haven't found what they're looking for.
Now they're essentially making up their mind about the result based on a partial screen cap of your site.
Secondly, by displaying the tiny screen cap, will searchers be more likely to be making up their mind on whether to visit your site based on its design? Will it be a case of design over relevance? Following that train of thought, will site owners now be more likely to try to optimise their site for Page Preview display?
Should we be spending our time browsing search results or browsing the actual result pages? Is Google now trying to own the entire search experience?
Food for thought...

Aww Sony.... so close!
Apparently Sony doesn't quite know the difference between a webcam and a piece of rubber...
Was the graphic designer having a bad day? Or is Sony so clever that they've developed a webcam/microphone that looks like a little rubber pad thingy?
I'll never understand their genius!
