Photo-A-Day #1460

Before Blogs, Brews and Belly Laughs I, I contacted ZINK Imaging about possibly getting some ZINK paper. What I got was two Polaroid PoGos and a ton of ZINK paper. ZINK means Zero Ink and this paper is marvelous stuff. For one thing it slightly smaller than a business card and it has a sticky backing. What I did at BBBL was take photos with people using my XShot and a custom timer on my Canon SD800is. Then I would print the best image out on ZINK paper. I would then peel off the backing of the ZINK paper and stick that to my business cards and give that to the people that I met.

Here is why this is a good idea.

1. Taking a photo with someone creates that shared experience.

2. While the photo prints – about a minute or so you can give that person your elevator pitch.

3. The person walks away with your business card and a unique experience sure to make them remember who you are.

Here’s what I mean

I’ll certainly be using my ZINK paper, Xshot and PoGo printer at Blogs, Brews and Belly Laughs II.

Sea World with Eva, originally uploaded by mot412.

Our great friend Mo just went Pro on Flickr and I could finally get to the photos she had of she and Eva. Look at this one that Mo shot with her xshot at the dolphin pool. I keep telling Mo that she needs to submit a story to the SeaWorld Dolphin bubbles blog.

Also Mo is going to once again step in and take care of Eva while we are at IZEAFest 2009. She’ll be taking Eva to SeaWorld every single day including the Blogger takeover day.

Did you know that if you go to IZEAFest 2009 to get a free ticket to SeaWorld. I can talk about this until I cam blue in the face but IZEAFest needs to be experienced. The best value for the money, the most bloggers, the most fun it is going to be fantastic. Each year the conference gets even bigger and better. Be there.
