Hey 3.5 readers.
Did you know that Hitler used to read this blog? I’m not bragging…I mean, you can’t control who your 3.5 readers are. I’m just surprised that at the close of World War II, when the allies were closing in on Berlin, he didn’t have anything to do other than to bitch about how shitty my blog was…is?
I don’t know how he read it in 1945. Time traveling web browser, maybe.
Hey 3.5 readers.
Kodak’s stock tripled today based on news that it is launching a new product, “KodakCoin,” getting in on the cryptocurrency phenomenon.
Gotta be honest, I’m surprised Kodak is still in business. I dabble in the stock market, but I never would have thought to buy shares in Kodak because, I mean, their main claim to fame was built on physical camera film, which is basically like producing Model T fords or dinosaur pants.
Millennials, there was a time when you had to load film into your camera and the little gremlins inside your camera would etch a rough sketch of what you were pointing your camera at. I’m pretty sure how that works.
Amazingly, Kodak remained in business over the years. I believe if you ever go to a store and get physical prints of your digital photos, its usual a Kodak machine, so they showed some conversion to modern tech power. Still, it’s got to be hard on a company when the product they were known for, i.e. Kodak film, becomes obsolete.
Not sure what KodakCoin is but it sounds like they’re devising a way for photographers to get paid when hteir images are used. If you know more about it, tell me and also will you use it?
