Fundraiser for The Smith Family
This park has a dark side
I have been asked today to support this fund raiser. It is quite out of character for me as usually I post articles and photos that relate to things I encounter myself. I have looked at the fund raiser and although it has a clear commercial context decided to put my support behind it. It is very simple. Please watch a 30 or so seconds promotional video from Microsoft and they will donate $1 per viewer to support Learning for Life program.
How does it relate to the Hyde Park photo? Well this park has a very dark side. Beautiful by day it becomes a refuge for many young people by night. I would hope that some of charity money may prevent a young person from having to live there or allow them to leave this park behind them on a way to a more rewarding and full filling life.
Watch a short Microsoft Office 2007 Charity demo and Microsoft will donate $1 to The Smith Family
From May 15 2008, for every short Microsoft Office 2007 Charity demo that is viewed, Microsoft will donate $1 to The Smith Family’s Learning for Life program. Help Microsoft reach the $100,000 goal and Aussie kids get the education they need for a brighter future.

Seems everyone wants a piece of the pie called digital photography. Today's turn belongs to Microsoft, which has purchased iView Multimedia. The product was initially offered on Apple platform and since it was made available on Windows too. According to the current FAQ existing customers will enjoy continuity of support however this is hard to see, once the product get integrated fully into Microsoft's application suite.
