In which a group of graying eternal amateurs discuss their passions, interests and obsessions, among them: movies, art, politics, evolutionary biology, taxes, writing, computers, these kids these days, and lousy educations.

Free Reads -- no, that's free looks

Friedrich --

Sometimes I wonder why artists/writers/whatever don't make more creative use of the web, and sometimes I marvel at the inspired ways artists/writers/whatever are making use of the web. Today belongs in the latter category, now that I've stumbled across a page of links (here) devoted to sites where photographers are keeping one-photo-a-day photodiaries. Some amazingly snazzy photos and some very chic sites. I especially liked an Italian site that features nothing but the day's one photograph and the words (my shakey translation) "no archives, no gallery, no links."

What a terrific form the online photodiary is. I'd try one myself if only I weren't such a bad photographer. People scatter whenever I pull out my Nikon.

Best,

Michael
