Living in the Past, or Does Ken Rockwell's 2004 Product Review Still Count?
We've all heard how all things digital live forever on the internet. It's the same for posted photos of drunk friends and product reviews.
I was surprised to learn that a 2004 review of Digimarc for Images is a top ten result on Google and Bing searches for Digimarc.
The product that Ken Rockwell reviewed in 2004 is a number of updates behind and two major upgrades out of date with Digimarc's product currently offered for the needs of pro and amateur photographers alike. So what's a blogger to do? It would be unfair and rather silly for me to rebut Mr. Rockwell's 2004 conclusions...
I did email him a while back to see if he might be interested in reviewing the current Digimarc for Images, yet somehow I haven't heard back and wouldn't be surprised if my message ended up in a SPAM filter.
So, if any of you happen to have a direct line to Ken Rockwell the photographer please let him know that we'd like to have him revisit Digimarc for Images. I'm sure the digital watermarking upgrades, improvements to the user accounts and pricing structure will create a much more positive review.
P.S. If you're wondering about the album art... It's Living in the Past by Jethro Tull - a "progressive" rock band from the 70's who are currently touring Europe for their 40th anniversary. Ahhh, those heady bygone days where your lead singer could also be a flutist.
