I love this set of costumes. If you do not know, Streaky was Supergirl's cat and Krypto was Superboy's dog. They have recently received their own cartoon.

This might be the best costume I have seen so far. I love this idea. Someone call whoever owns the rights to Ghostbusters. I think this would be a good comic.

Comic Con 2007: Preview Night

Preview night was crazy. It was much busier than last year. It seemed by 4 PM there were thousands of people there. The floor was packed almost the whole time. There were people bumping into each other the whole time. It was amazing.

I wonder if the whole show will be this big. The floor is larger than ever. I saw very few costumes last night. I guess that will pick up as the show goes on. It looks like this will be a good show.

Views, Hits, and Flickr

Kathy's Vacation: Giant Camera
Originally uploaded by earthdog.

As I said before, I am obsessed with Flickr. My obsession has dulled a little, but I still visit flickr several times a day. The main expression of my obsession is how many views my photos get. I think this gives me feedback about what people think of my photos. I think I learn a lot about flickr by looking at my views.

Total Photos 5998

10000 Views - 1 Photo
1000 Views - 45 Photos = .7%
500 Views - 122 Photos
216 Views - 386 Photos (number of contacts I have)
100 Views - 1070 Photos = .17%
50 Views - 2406 Photos
39 Views - 3046 Photos (includes the halfway photo 2999)
20 Views - 4651 Photos
10 Views - 5359 photos

I am not sure what this means.

Low iPhone Activations

It looks like iPhones Activations are lower than expected. I am not sure what this does to getting 1% of the cell phone market in the first year. I cannot expect it is good for Apple. These numbers might be a little off because it only looks at the first 24 hours of activation. While everyone knows someone who bought an iPhone, it might not be all that many people.
