  3. People always hate to talk about when they are laid off. But as it has become every day's news headline since Yahoo started it with cutting 1500 of its task force last year, now a need of platform has been in demand where people can express their selves in words how they are feeling about their company, whey the got laid off was that justified or not.
    And every thing they want to tell anonymously.And www.layoffgossip.com is providing you that platform.

  4. It's getting time to drop the mirror (no pun intended). While I still shoot film and have only started doing digital, I long ago thought that digital SLR days are numbered. While the technology was a necessary evil for a film camera, there is no good reason to do this with a digital camera *if* a small, high quality, high resolution digital display can be provided with a magnified view finder, to go along with the larger display on the back of the camera.
