Okay so summer in the North Country is short and so is the semester. This is one conversation we did not have this semester...a fairly new application that brings up all kinds of wonderful ethical and legal issues as well as opening up a whole new world of possibilities. Watch this and comment below. What do you think? What does it bring up for you?

Seems kind of freaky that your family photos could be used by others all over the world. Yet in the same sense technology is amazing. Why take your camera on vacation, just get Online and download someone else's photos.
ReplyDeleteScary. There is nothing that is private anymore. No matter where you are someone can zoom in and see if you're picking your nose! Enough already.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't this send copywriting out the window? I see lots of legal problems to come.
Wow, cyber-space has gone wild! I think this is great in some ways, but I want to know What I'm looking at. Suddenly the images I see will not be real, they will be a combination of smaller ones. What happens to those artists who work tirelessly to create photomosaics? Now guys like this are doing the same thing, but receiving more credit for it, and those aren't even his own pictures. This could be great for viewing advertisments, but well, I am not ready for some microsoft genius to control what I'm looking at or even steal my pics.
ReplyDeleteThis is wild! I can't fathom taking credit for pictures that I tagged out on the internet. I can see where someone doing this could wind up stealing some really good photos and taking the credit for it. Like Dianne says, sends copywriting right out the window.....
