SignOnSanDiego.com > News > Technology -- Snap judgments: "Digital photos can look great, but some labs won't print those that appear too professional"
All I want to do is like Walmart, but they keep making it harder and harder. These poor people, they have a little talent, and walmart is working to squelch it, just like they have been accused of doing with mom and pop stores over the last few years. You would think that they would just print the photo's and let it go at that, and then if there is a copyright issue, the person submitting the photo would be responsible for any legal issues. But, here is a big store that again thinks it needs to police the world.
I do like Walmart, or at least used to, they have the best prices, and with the one here in Rapid City, they make it possible for a family to actualy eat on a single income. Shoping anywhere else, I find that I can't afford half of the things that I can purchase at walmart. So, when will they stop selling medicines because they are affraid that someone will take advil that doesn't have a headache? Isn't that almost the next logical step?
On another note, I've kinda given up on the dawn and drew show, or at least their message board for now. Not because of the people, who rock, but because they finaly let slip exactly what I've been saying for months now. That comercilization will ruin podcasting. See, DnD have admited that they are about to get new recording equiptment, presumibly from Podshow. How is this fair to the rest of the podcasters? Doesn't this seem like it's going to totally upset the playing field? I signed up for podshow, but I'm not getting a package to start my podcast with from Adam Curry.... Well, I guess it's just another I told You So that I can't do anything with but feel smug...
**Smug**
K, enough of that, this all comes around to show that heavy comercilization isn't the way to go anymore. It's time to just make things up as we go along people, and stop bowing to the pressure of big business, wether it be Syrius, Walmart, or any other big business that says it advocates the little guy, but rewards the big guy.
