Appears so
I’m getting reports by some folks that their companies are blocking this site because it’s a naughty site. It may have been the old flickr link with the “P” word in it.
I’m not sure if I can do anything about it, but I’ll see what’s up. The link is no longer on the site. There could be old posts with the word in it though. I will try to remove the word.
*UPDATE*
The word on the site has been removed. I guess you can tell your admins the site is clean.

Getting ready for more stuff
I added a searchbox at the top right corner. It seems to search articles pretty well.
I moved the top ad banner down, I didn’t like the way it looked at the top and for other reasons. I hope you don’t find the smaller text ads annoying. I might tweak the colors a bit to make it less “BAM!”
There’s also space for a new text menu across the top that I will use for reviews and other things.
The logo is gone for a sec while I redesign a resize. I just thought the header before was taking up way too much screen space.
I made a post on the old Canon Rumors RSS feed about the feed address update, hopefully that helped a few of you. A complete oversight on my part.
Thanks for reading

We’ll try this again
I’m looking for someone to help with news posts here at CR. This is a volunteer position that I will make worth your while.
I want someone that can commit to contributing for at least 6 months. I’m pretty informal so it’s not a high pressure thing.
I took applications before, however a bunch of stuff happened out of my control and it got put to the backburner.
Contact me at buzz[at]canonrumors.com

Black Silicon
Any interesting new technology for low light applications.
“IT started with a Harvard physicist acting on a hunch. It ended up producing a new material, called black silicon, that could have a broad impact on technologies ranging from ultrasensitive sensors to photovoltaic cells.”

What the?
From Gizmodo:
Is it April 1?
“A seriously odd announcement from camera maker Nikon, the Media Port UP300 and UP300x video headset approaches wearable PC territory. The device, which honestly looks like a pair of headphones with a small display tacked on, actually has a pretty impressive spec sheet: up to 8GB of flash memory for videos, audio and file storage, Wi-Fi connectivity, a full-featured internet browser and on the 300x model, even motion control. Browsing would have to be frustrating on a setup like this, but the Wi-Fi connection can also be used to download audio and video content directly to the device.”

I’ve been working pretty hard on getting a new site up and running. I had to switch to WordPress as I had outgrown my previous site.
The site isn’t 100% finished, there will be some tweaking to Adsense placement and other things. I will be adding a reviews section among other things.
I wanted the site to remain pretty minimal in design.
I will be doing minor stuff while the site is live to customize a bit more. Consider this a beta test.
Yeah, they’re gone. I gave up trying to import them. They weren’t part of an RSS feed. I will keep trying, but I’m not sure if it’s really needed. Is it?
There will be some, if you hate something on the site… let me know.
Camera's I'm Looking for
I'm becoming a bit of a collector of older Canon cameras. I'm not going to try to get every one, but there are a few I'd like to add. I just got a near mint black AE-1 (not program).
Cameras I would like as close to mint as possible:
F-1
Silver AE-1
Canonet G-III 17 (Black & Silver)
T70
T80
T90
PELLIX
50 f/0.95
If you have a camera not listed here, I'd like to hear about it too.
Can't always find what I'd like on ebay. If anyone has any they'd like to pass on to a good home, let me know.
