You know, photo conversations are replacing verbal conversations. I don't know if that's a bad thing. A photo is worth a thousand words.
4chan gets almost one million posts per day, hundreds of thousands of which are images.
Digital technology has thrown a closed shop wide open, and there are more people out there snapping away than ever before. Some of the pictures are bad, some of them are good, and many of them need some seasoning and direction.
The megapixel war in conventional cameras has been a total myth. It's taking us all in the wrong direction. Once a picture goes online, you're throwing away 95 to 98 percent of those pixels.
Twitter goes straight over my head, but I like the idea of posting pictures because they can say so much.
I do not know exactly why, but it seems to me that images do not belong to anybody but are instead there, at the disposal of all.
I'm obsessed with Tumblr. I love looking at all the pictures!
I opened up Shutterstock to the whole world. I created a contributor community that anyone could give stock photography a shot.
Instagram is amazing, and I enjoy sharing photos there. However, I don't think it is where my photos will go to live.
There are some elements of digital photography that I don't really like, such as the fact that you see the results immediately.
If you've ever snapped a picture of your dinner, Nom is for you.
I'm technologically an imbecile. But I do use the camera phone!
I don't go looking for the post-match team pictures posted by players on Instagram, but usually, someone ends up showing them to me, or I notice them when they get printed in the newspapers.
Twitter vs Instagram is a left brain versus right brain kind of social media device. Twitter is for speaking, whereas Instagram is for your artistry. It's how we communicate, via visual versus our words. So it's a good workout, it's a good brain workout.
I carry both a Blackberry and an iPhone. But for my job, the iPhone is essential because of picture-taking and because of picture sharing.
They've found a way to privately, or within a small family group, share expressions, or other images, drawings, and then gain access to some of the world's great expressions and images and make them real, make them tangible.
People love photos. Photos originally weren't that big a part of the idea for Facebook, but we just found that people really like them, so we built out this functionality.
[Photography] can be tiny, on your phone, or it can be a billboard, or a film-sized projection, or printed in a magazine. I don't think we've been in a time before when so much photography is available in so many formats, when everybody is a photographer.
In a way, digital cameras were like very early personal computers such as the Commodore 64 - clunky and able to do only a few things.
Anyone can contribute images, and we sell them to designers and agencies all over the world.
Twitter's more fast-paced. Instagram, it's more, like, lifestyle and posting very specific, cool pictures.
You can build a brand very fast now, especially with bloggers and how fast images can get out - the message just goes out faster and stronger than ever before.
I support Selfies! I think the war on selfies is really unjust!
Photos were seen as the most private type of content, and 'Instagram' really flipped that on its head and said photos can be really public.
I definitely get inspiration from the 'gram. I mean, Instagram is Google, essentially. I love looking at pictures of beautiful women.
