Polaroids, People
Polaroid recently announced they would stop making instant film. For all you crazy, young kids who don’t know what I’m talking about, Polaroid made cameras that printed instant pictures right out of the camera! That’s right. You got your pictures instantly. No need to take your film to your local Walgreens or CVS pharmacies to have your pictures developed. No need to hook your digital camera up to your PC, store them, and load some of your digital photos on Flickr. All you had to do is wave your photo paper around like a fan for a few seconds, and you had your picture…you know, in an instant! Perhaps some people should have supported instant cameras more, and Polaroid wouldn’t have had to stop making instant film.
Recently, a scandal erupted when Hong Kong singer/actor, Edison Chen (of “The Grudge 2″ fame for us Americans) took his MacBook Pro in for repairs. Low and behold, the repair technicians couldn’t resist being nosy and found “racy pictures” of him and other female Hong Kong entertainers…approximately 1,300 photos.
Perhaps this guy and all celebrities who insist on taking sex photos should have used instant cameras, and the poor guy wouldn’t have had to quit. That way, you can take your PC in for repairs without any worries. Now, if sex videos is your thing more so than photos, I suggest you use an old fashion VHS camcorder. I’m sure you can still find one somewhere.
Digital is not always good, people. Think before you store it on your machine.*
