Learn Photography Tips on DSLR Camera

Friday, July 31st, 2009

The best way to learn is go for it. For example, you can’t learn swimming without go to swimming pool. No matter how many techniques I teach, you just can’t swim on dry table.

Same way for photography. I learn photography by using DSLR camera. I have ordered a beginner DSLR (Nikon D60) few weeks ago. And just received it last week.

DSLR Means Better Photo ?

No. If you think DSLR can make your photography more beautiful, then you’re Wrong! My first few days photo with DSLR even worst than a compact camera.

Is Digg Dying?

Tuesday, July 28th, 2009

Social media is one of the important source for Blogger to promote their website. To name a few there are StumbleUpon, Digg, Technorati, etc. In fact, Digg stay on top of my referer traffic source.

I’m happy with traffic that Digg bring to me until it changed the behavior of its short URLs. Instead of link to the story source, they direct visitors to a landing page on Digg.com.

Hijacked URL Links

If you think are link to your content, then you’re wrong! You are actually just pushing traffic to Digg. I don’t mean Digg don’t have right to do that. But at least should inform us, the publishers. (more…)
