On my way home from work last night, I was listening to NPR when I heard a story about KFC’s new Buffalo Chicken Sandwich ad. The short version is that KFC is running an ad with a very very short scene, too short to catch without some kind of DVR. If you manage to pause at the right time, there is a cupon code to get yourself a free sandwich from KFC! What an interesting way to get people to watch your ads! According to the article about 70% of people who have DVR’s skip the commercials, so the advertisers...
You know, it’s frustrating when you don’t know what something is even when you work at the company making/doing/owning the website about it. http://www.origamiproject.com/1/ Damn, this thing has me...
It’s alive!* http://www.BBPPhoto.com # My new fine art photography web site is up and working. I’ve got one more tweak to do, and then I’m all set! It’s running some special stuff.

This quarter I’m taking a night, and low light colour photography class at school and its been pretty cool so far. I’ve shot about 6 rolls of film, and by far, these last two are the best I’ve picked up yet. These are just scans of the negatives, I haven’t had a chance to print them yet, so we’ll see how that goes. The one on my left is my favourite I think. The scan doesn’t really do justice to the colour of the sky, but its this wonderful royal blue. When I shot this negative, it was about an 8 minute...
