The Bing Photo of the Day – On TV and Twitter! by Ben Vincent

Well Friday was pretty cool, lots of really nice comments from friends and colleagues. In addition there was lots of internet activity that I thought I’d share.

On TV!!!

This is the best part.  Unbeknownst to me, my photo was used in a TV segment on Friday as well. It was shown on screen for a few seconds during The Soup on E! It starts with my photo on a TV in the background, then 10 seconds later there’s a full screen shot! I have no idea what the program is but it may be my favourite TV program now:

The Soup - Intro The Soup - Fullscreen shot

 On The iPhone

Bing’s iPhone app supports the photo of the day as well, it worked perfectly:

iPhone - Fullscreen view iPhone - Credits iPhone - Link to Monterey Aquarium

 On Twitter

We search Twitter at work to keep a pulse on user feedback. On Friday I did a few searches and found some cool tweets about my Photo:

Tweet-MartinPeck
Tweet-SteveHaigh
Tweet-SunnyFishTank

And I think I actually converted someone to Bing, unless she’s on her way to Bing in Montana

Tweet-MzGhBeauty

Our Windows Live marketing team also tweeted on my photo!

Tweet-WindowsLive

And it’s nice to see that the Monterey Aquarium saw it too:

Tweet-MontereyAq

And I have no idea what this is about!

Tweet-Amantedellapa

and here’s the rest:

Tweet-Shirlsmor
Tweet-WebComms
Tweet-Caelesp
Tweet-Consbio
Tweet-DharmaBum73
tweet-khoney
Tweet-Forkspoonknife
Tweet-CandyPrince

Arnie Visits The Microsoft Campus by Ben Vincent
Arnie (aka The Govenator) had a flying visit to the Microsoft Silicon Valley campus today. He was here to launch California’s Elevate America program. I think I grabbed one of the last seats before it started and was able to take a few photos. Amusingly, Just before he entered I heard one of his protection detail say on his mic “He’s not with me, I thought he was with you”….   [Read More]

Fotofly PhotoViewer is now available on CodePlex by Ben Vincent
This week I published onto Codeplex my Silverlight PhotoViewer, my third Open Source Project. Using my Fotofly metadata library, this reusable control displays the photo, people regions and a map of the location. You can use it on your own site to light up all that metadata locked in the file. Here’s what the control looks like.   [Read More]

Tassography v4.0 Goes Live Using ASP.Net MVC by Ben Vincent
Late last year I set out to completely rewrite the front end of tassography.com based on ASP.Net MVC. Well it’s finally done and now available for everyone’s viewing pleasure. As well as changing the underlying code the most important change I made was a switch to an entirely new SEO-friendly URL schema. Gone are all the ugly, impossible to understand /ViewCollection.aspx?c=20100214 because that’s now /photography/2010-02-14-wandering-around-pier-39.   [Read More]
