Rolly time for Sony
What the heck is this?! Cool tune and advert though – are Sony doing something new and innovative for once? And the big question, will they price it right?!
Friday visuals for you
Evening all, it’s Friday and that means the weekend! For those of you who have been slaving away at dead end desk jobs, that means some freedom. This is not meant to be offensive, it is the truth. Having been in the corporate world for 11 years, I am relishing the freedom, every single day! 
I had not realised how negative I had become. Working for
/ with people who crush your confidence and drain your creativity is not good for the mind, body or soul. It is like a breath of fresh air to be free and regain some of the energy and passion I have for web-marketing, branding and photography.
Anyway, enough of my freedom (YEAH BABY!), and onto a few images I have been saving up. First up is this excellent slightly doctored pic from MyMac – made me chuckle! (MyMac looks like a pretty cool site, so well worth checking it out).
My good friend Simon Kelly sent me the pic below and very interesting it is too – thanks old boy. (Simon has recently escaped the clutches of the Borg 
and is onto much better things where he is appreciated). It highlights the gulf between Apple and other brands when it comes to people’s perceptions. I know of no other brand which elicits so much devotion and fan-boy behaviour.
Say no more – seen on Fake Steve’s Blog. Awesome.
Lastly, browser wars – I stupidly forgot to note down where I found this, so many apologies if someone goes, oi, Mossman, stop nicking our content!
It looks like Firefox is doing a top job against the IE menace but not so good for Safari, even with it being used on the bland beige boxes now.
So, whatever you are doing, have a great Friday night!

Hull flickr Photowalk 2
It was that time again, the Hull flickr meet! We met at the Bay Horse pub on Wincolmlee and went for a good walk around the urban sprawl… The light was fading fast though, but it was nice to see everyone and managed to get some ok snaps. I must admit that I do prefer more “action-orientated” photography, (motorsport, people etc), so I hope we could try something different next time.
Canon 1d mkIII firmware version 1.1.1
Thanks to inkiboo for this – a temporary Canon Service centre at the World Athletics Championships is putting this on people’s MkIII’s. There have been a lot of rumours about this over the past few days, and the general concensus is that it should be released publicly very soon.
Personally, I have had no issues with my camera so far (fingers crossed!).
Piccadilly Circus – Microsoft affect Coca-Cola ads
Excellent – don’t you just love it when this happens?!
Thanks to Rosso on flickr for this, well captured that man!
Leopard icons hide secrets
Cult of Mac have just posted this up – that the new Leopard icons are resolution independent and can be scaled to a large size. This has turned up the first Easter Egg, where the Apple engineers have written the words of the first Apple Ad on the Text Edit icon.
I bet there are things that are never discovered, that the designers and engineers chuckle about every once in a while wondering if they ever will be found …
