Well just type "photocasting" in google and check out your first hit. Is it Apple? No, currently it is a post from over two months ago from chris pirillo's web site showing how to setup PHOTOCASTING with flickr and the PSP.

Attribution is just not in Apple's DNA.

You can access all the same pdfs (but not the IBM forum) from Sony without registering.

Re:gender bias?

On: MIT Names First Female President

is this a step in the right direction for the historically gender-biased institution?

Yeah, can you believe that MIT didn't even start accepting women until 1870?

Seriously, please have some clue what you are talking about before you post such nonsense. MIT was the first scientific school to enroll a woman and last year's incoming class was 44 percent female . I'm not saying there is complete equality among the sexes, but I am saying that MIT is generally ahead of the curve on this one.
