Weebly scores 1 million users, reaches profitability
November 3 at 7:21 am - via Bookmarklet - Link
"Weebly, an AJAX-based drag and drop web page creator, today announces it has reached a million registered users — and perhaps more importantly — that the three-year-old company is now profitable. The San Francisco, Calif.-based start-up, seeded with $650k by Ron Conway (who participated in our Downturn Event VC Panel) and other angel investors including seed fund Y Combinator, in June launched two products to help bring in revenue: The first was professional accounts (versions that users actually have to pay for), the second was Google AdSense integration into sites built using Weebly." - imabonehead via Bookmarklet
congratulations to them. inspiring to hear at a time like this. - mike
"...that the three-year-old company is now profitable..." this is what i like - Naor

"It is interesting that that article from more than a year ago has bubbled up again. That’s why there’s no statute of limitations to blog posts. I certainly don’t believe ignoring bad news is a good idea. What I was trying to get across last year was essentially it seemed the bad news was welcomed or celebrated, and I’ve tried to take a different approach in highlighting the entrepreneur, services, growth, etc. I’ve been at companies with layoffs, and down rounds, etc, as many of us here have, and it’s a tough road." - Louis Gray

Video and slides for the talks. - Michael Nielsen
Mike -- I was under the impression that all PIRSA talks became available at midnight, but I was happy to discover that the workshop talks were available some time before 6pm EST (which means that I can actually watch them in the UK on the day they're given). The quality was good except for suboptimal audio during Sabine's talk. - Robert Spekkens
Rob - I spoke to Jacob (who does A/V), and he said he noticed, and it is apparently a problem with some equipment that's just been installed. He said it should be be better now. - Michael Nielsen
totally awesome that they're available as mp3s! - Stephanie♥CogSciLibrarian
I'm really enjoying the fact that I can attend this conference vicariously by watching all the talks on PIRSA. It's an interesting experience. I've been working normally during the day and watching the talks in the evening after they become available in the UK. I dedicate about 3 hours + to the conference every day. That's less than would be required to watch all the talks because I can fastforward through the bits that are less interesting to me. Basically, if I'm not interested or I'm already familiar with some point that the speaker's making, I jump ahead a few minutes and listen in for a bit to see if she's moved on to the next topic. If I find that I've missed something interesting, I just rewind a bit. It works surprisingly well. I'm finding that almost all the talks at this conference are really interesting (it's a great conference), so I'm not motivated to do a lot of compression. But I can think of conferences I've attended where I would have been ruthless with the fastforward on a lot of spea - Robert Spekkens
Mike -- Could you mention to Jacob that Harry Collins' talk doesn't work on PIRSA. (I presume that Steve Fuller's talk isn't available because it was given by video link.) Thanks. - Robert Spekkens
Rob - Apparently Harry's talk wasn't recorded; there was a problem of some kind, so it won't be going up. Glad you're enjoying the event. - Michael Nielsen
That's a great shame - it was a really good talk and very difficult to liveblog - the Friendfeed commentary of Harry's talk is at http://friendfeed.com/e/773a5f... and there are links to his website there - Cameron Neylon
Oh no, that's the one talk I missed! I thought that with the recording and FriendFeeding I'd catch up anyway. - Eva
Here's a reasonably recent interview with Harry Collins, which covers a lot of the same stuff as his talk: http://www.americanscientist.o... - Jen Dodd

Really interesting. Kind of surprised to see Reddit in other US #1. I believe Pleasanton is a large server hub - so it could really just be classified as SF/SJ Metro. - AJ Kohn
Wouldn't the presence of a companies HQ skew the data so that city/region would come out on top? I know that we have people in our marketing dept. google our name to see what pops up - and lo and behold - the city where we are HQ'd is #1. A random company - Lockheed Martin - indicates that the top Google searches are all around where their company locations are....Just a random thought.... - George Smith
George: Of course it would. Zillow is a great example. But even with that, there are many examples here where that's not the case. - Louis Gray
It's an interesting data set - I just don't think having a SF area based #1 is a sign you haven't jumped. iTunes obviously has. As has linkedin. I love google trends - but think this data set is a mixed bag. - George Smith
is this all that surprising?? - Jeremy Toeman
@Jeremy: First paragraph: "unsurprisingly, the San Francisco Bay Area is disproportionally weighted". So no, not a surprise. :-) - Louis Gray
Touché - but your headline sure makes it seem like a question, eh? :) - Jeremy Toeman
Isn't AOL headquarters in new york now? - gregory
FYI: Halifax (#1 for Facebook) has a population no greater than 400K. Many US cities have 5 to 10 times Halifax's population in a similar geographic area. - Mark Dykeman

Cops Target Photographers - News - Miami New Times - Miami New Times
July 9 at 11:32 am - via Bookmarklet - Link
The incident is one of at least four that have occurred in Miami-Dade County over the past year in which photographers have ended up arrested, handcuffed, threatened, intimidated, or accused of being a terrorist. (I spent 16 hours in jail as a result of one of them.) Taken together, they raise the question of whether the First Amendment means anything anymore. "Officers do not have the right to seize cameras, look at the images, or delete the images," says Oregon attorney Bert Krages, who wrote The Legal Handbook for Photographers: The Rights and Liabilities of Making Images. - Thomas Hawk via Bookmarklet
I keep hearing of these incidents - ⓃⓄⒶⒽ ⒹⒶⓋⒾⒹ ⓈⒾⓂⓄⓃ
Of course, if they delete pictures you can get them back. Take the card out and don't take any more pictures on it. When you get home there are any number of recovery programs that will recover the photos. Sometimes it's just easier to back down and show them you're deleting the pictures, then restore them when you get home and tell your story. Otherwise, the whole camera might get impounded and you'll never get the photos back. - Kevin Fox
You would think that there was enough other crime to deal with in Florida without cops wasting their time bullying photographers? - Brian Sullivan
Wish I could say this surprised me. I'd buy the fact that he was upholding security measures if his issue were that the photographer was photographing a sensitive area ... but this guy got caught probably doing something that's in direct violation of the rules of his shift. Or maybe he was worried that the picture made his ass look big ... which it does. - Cathy Brooks
This makes me want to spend a weekend taking pictures in Miami. With a thousand or so of my closest camera-toting friends. - Chris Baskind
Things like this greatly frustrate me. It's beginning to sound a lot like a police state around here. - Geoff Schultz
Kevin, is there a program you use for this? I didn't know you could recover pics from a card. I thought once they were gone, they were gone for good. - David Cook
WHY?? WHY?? WHY?? lame-O - Susan Beebe
@David: if you haven't taken other pictures (or written to the card in other ways) after the deletion, recovery is easy. I've successfully used a free tool called PhotoRec in the past. http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki... - Tudor Bosman
This is a shame. They were talking about this on TWIP a few weeks back and the guy actually stood up to the police. I believe they are gathering a bunch of Photographers to that spot in LA so they can all take pictures where they guy was asked to stop. - Matt Donders
Of course, this is also a good reason to get an Eye-Fi card. By the time you delete the photo it may already be posted to your flickr account! - Kevin Fox
wow those are some seriously disturbing stories. - Chris Jones via twhirl
Reminds me of my story last year in San Antonio - I had basically chosen to not get arrested by capitulating to a big, threatening cop with obvious anger issues... a reporter friend of mine at a major daily told me, when I relayed the story to him the next morning, that it wasn't really a story unless I got arrested. I mean it's getting that common, and that's sick. Story here: http://www.cosmictap.com/an-ac... - Anthony Citrano
I think there is safety in numbers and maybe someone in the group could photograph the incident. @TWIPPHOTO has a poll this week asking is you shoot photos alone or with others. - Bob

I know you can't compare markets directly but that sounds like a great deal compared to the minimum spend contract on offer with o2 in the UK. Having trouble loading the Rogers site to compare the deals directly. Lots of pre-orders being placed I guess :-). - Ben
Well, it's a start, at least. I really wish that Rogers would offer a reasonable explanation for their actions. So far, all they've managed to do is spew fluff such as "normal users won't really use that much", etc. - Bradley McSpinn
finally - thanks for not sucking rogers. - Cole Orton
Just be aware that the $30 is only the data plan; If I read this correctly, there's plenty of other charges that will be applied to owning that phone. (e.g. voice plan, caller ID, etc.) - Karnatos
@Cole: Rogers still sucks. It's still a 3-year contract and that's only a promotion. They should remove the time bomb! - Long Nguyen
still not gonna buy one, the 30 dollars only applies to data and i'm sure the voice plans still suck - Chris Jones via twhirl

This is the coolest image search service I've seen. They are giving me free accounts for FriendFeed'ers. Use this link to try it out: http://tineye.com/register?reg... - Robert Scoble
Your right! Very fun and interesting. Oh... and they have a firefox add-on. - "Czar" DJ Peterman
Awesome, thanks for the invite! - Ocean
Really? Surprised that Scobleizer *just* found this. - Ivan Stegic
I like the idea of new media search tools, especially in images and video. I love hearing people answer how they plan on making money, it very often seems to be a touchy issue. - Jeremy Campbell via twhirl
Ivan: they were too. Hey, I don't always see EVERYTHING. :-) - Robert Scoble
TinEye is really really REALLY cool. There's a huge potential there -- can't wait till the index more of the web. - Shey
Clever stuff. Signed up, thanks. - Simon Wicks
seems like a very cool tool. haven't found anything good enough to mark as "cool" but it's fun to see what comes back - Steve Long
Yeah, it's a really awesome tool... I bet it's hard to see a gem amongst the rough sometimes, Robert. Especially when you are wading through as much electronic waste as I am sure you are. Whew! - Ivan Stegic
thanks for the invite URL! - David Silvernail
This is a great service, been using it for a few months now. - Jacob Burke

A very cool tool indeed, especially if you need to keep track of where images are going around the Web... - Chris Reed
I just registered. This is a really neat tool! - Candace Holly
The firefox add-on is great.. - Darryl
they should offer the ability to sort by image size - would be immensely helpful - Nathan Chase

searching images with an image, meh - adolfo foronda
Yeah tried this out a while back, should be awesome in the long run. @Ivan, that's hilarious about the fact that you think Scoble looks like a Ghostbuster...i've been trying to figure out what it was he reminded me of for ages! And you're spot on! :) - Zee from WeDoCreative

Comet Between Fireworks and Lightning
July 5 at 11:21 am - via Reshare - Link
This will be a photograph in the top 10 of many future lists. - Andrew Baron
Explanation: "In January 2007, people from Perth, Australia gathered on a local beach to watch a sky light up with delights near and far. Nearby, fireworks exploded as part of Australia Day celebrations. On the far right, lightning from a thunderstorm flashed in the distance. Near the image center, though, seen through clouds, was the most unusual sight of all: Comet McNaught. The photogenic comet was so bright that it even remained visible though the din of Earthly flashes. Comet McNaught has now returned to the outer Solar System and is now only visible with a large telescope. The above image is actually a three photograph panorama digitally processed to reduce red reflections from the exploding firework." - Andrew Baron
