Also, digital rights and usage of photography is more important than ever. At our company, the Concept Farm, we make extensive use of digital photography and are very careful to make sure we use all the proper procedures. Also, we could not have created our Asset-Based Thinking book series without the the use of rights managed digital photography and picture sharing. People that read our book often use the images in our books in presentations and blogs. Like the sound of PicScout and will check that out as soon as possible. Nice post. Thanks for the info.

He obviously enjoyed answering the question and was passionate about what he was talking about. That is where good interviews come from - striking a nerve, although that was not my intent. As for PicScout, perhaps their site is clear to designers and other people who have the problem that they solve, I can't say. Perhaps some designers, photographers, stock houses and other creative folks will weigh in and let us know what they think. Cheers and thanks for the comments Hi Dennis,

I love that NIgel Barker gets so obviously peeved at you at the beginning. Second, I like the idea of digital rights management for photography, but I have to be honest, after reading your article I got excited about PicScout, but I've been having a lot of trouble navigating the Web site and getting a clear idea of how they work, what they do, and how they're different from other digital watermarking technologies. Very difficult to tell where they fit in the digital photography landscape or more importantly what they could do for me... Perhaps they could use some help from a qualified branding professional? Cheers. First of all, the video is HILARIOUS. I love that NIgel Barker gets so obviously peeved at you at the beginning.
