Why You Should Never Lose Your Digital Media

kkrista writes "What would you do if you found someone's digital media card from their camera in your taxi? One such individual has decided to provide the world with 227 days of entertainment. I Found Some Of Your Life will post a photo a day and accompanying fictional narrative for the next 227 days using the photos found on a digital media card left in a cab. Is it pure genius or pure evil? Who cares? Just be thankful they're not your photos."

    Actually, I wish my life were interesting enough right now that somebody would want to build a website based on my photos.

    Day 1: This is wrinkledshirt on Slashdot.

  9. Re:Presumed copyright by skraps · · Score: 3, Funny

    Sooo... what if I aim the camera and my buddy presses the button?
    What if I take a perfectly framed picture of a copyrighted picture? Do I then own the copyright?
    What if the shutter button is pressed by two people simultaneously?
    Maybe there is a complex multi-key system like they have in those submarine nuke movies. I suppose it's whoever turns the key last.
    I guess they could both turn the key at the same time.
    Of course, If you follow Einstein at all, you know that there is no way to know who turned the key last - and that it's impossible for them to turn at the same time.
    You could argue that I didn't personally press the button. There are a number of bacteria and other assorted lifeforms on my findertips. The bacteria probably own the picture.
    Can bacteria own things?

    Hello and welcome to Blackmail! The way this works is we post once picture a day, but at any time you can email our hot..er.line and pay the amount of money listed at the bottom of the page to have the pictures removed.

    Only in the land of the free, where a family can be "very poor" and still own a digital camera.
