Grimthing.com has one of the best write-ups I’ve seen on the relative merits of Photoshop vs. Gimp. Photoshop still beats Gimp for print-oriented production work, but Gimp already has 95% of Photoshop’s features, outstrips Photoshop in some areas, and is quickly gaining even those print capabilities that it once lacked, such as PANTONE and CMYK color tools.

Pretty cool: The Architecture of Density, photographs by Michael Wolf (thanks to noise-to-signal, a Seattle blog I stumbled upon in my wandering clickery).

Speaking of photography, I also stumbled onto the brilliant, haunting work of Saiga Yuji on Gunkajima.
