News?

I know this has been a very long time (I barely remembered my wordpress password) but here we go: a new article. Don’t expect much at that point though – if you were still expecting anything, that is.
But here is the thing: Pentaxforums has recently run a give away along the lines of “write a technical blogpost related to photography – we’ll pick the best one(s) and offer goodies up to $1000 thanks to sponsoring by B&H”.
Guess what? I submitted an entry Linux for photography, 3 years down the line which aimed to revisit my previous article on the topic. And it got selected among the 15 finalists.
Now why do I tell all that right now? Two things:
  1. if you want to help my “cause” read the article (the more hits, the higher my chances) or even better (if you are a subscriber to Pentaxforums – and any true Pentaxian should be) vote for me. Don’t tell me you didn’t se that one coming 😛
  2. this was also an opportunity to remember that blogging is time consuming, but also a lot of fun. So here is the idea: help me get a higher rank in PentaxForums give away and I’ll resume blogging 🙂 The first article will be about GIMP being invaded by goats…
 PS: no, this is not bribing: Adam (PF administrator) encouraged us to “share this voting thread with your friends, together with a link to your article”. I am just obeying 🙂

    There are now personal blogs, political blogs, cooking blogs, all earning
    a little revenue and fame. You can do this on a regular basis,
    enticing your readers to see what interesting list you conceive next.

    they’re going to go about building positive working
    relationships using a network of people during the
    entire organisation. Of course, not fixing these could bring about loss of pressure in the system plus
    much more costs in your water than you’d like.
