10 Hidden Images in Logos We See Daily

Isn’t it strange how many things are right in front of your eyes? The world is full of symbols, but we never find the time to notice them. These cool logos are actually images hidden into images. We were probably supposed to notice them, but tough luck, almost anybody ever does!

Some very clever and creative ideas here.

Article: Why digital photographs won't be around forever

Why digital photographs won't be around forever
http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2011/aug/14/digital-photography-not-forever-prints

Dear Photograph is a remarkable demonstration of the power of ordinary, humdrum photographs to evoke memories. Anyone who has ever found a shoebox of old prints in an attic will know this. They yield up images of ourselves when we were young, slender and innocent, of our parents with unlined, carefree expressions and unfurrowed, untroubled brows, of holidays once enjoyed, places once visited. Photographs freeze moments in time, reminding us of who we were – and, by implication, of who we have become.

That sums it for me, and if you are like my husband who can spend hours in the loft reminiscing in the company of neatly put together albums of his travels from 20 years ago it's an important point. I'm convinced we are losing a whole chunk of social history because so many photographs are not printed or stored properly and then what will look at to remind us?
