In this recurring column, we highlight a few items we've run across that don't merit a full story of their own but are interesting enough to bring to your attention (with more than 140 characters). This time we look at the Lexar 64GB Pro 1800X UHS-II microSDXC, treasures from the N.Y. Times photo morgue, nine things you should know about Facebook photos and Thom Hogan is looking for help.
- Derrick Story has been testing the Lexar 64GB Pro 1800X UHS-II microSDXC card in his Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark II using the included pass-though SD card adapter. Not only is the bundled card reader small but the transfers are fast. He copied 1.15-GB of video from his camera to his Mac in 5.16 seconds.
- Kenya Downs writes about the New York Times current research into its photo morgue. "As part of a series for Black History Month, the Times is sharing never-before-seen images while exploring the untold stories behind them," she writes.
- Amy-Mae Turner lists eight things you really should know about Facebook photos. There are actually nine. The ninth is that is strips your copyright tags.
- Thom Hogan is looking for a few key contributors to his Sansmirror site.
