Caring is an attractive quality we're all drawn towards on some level. We notice when people care for us, or someone else, or some thing. And it makes us feel good.

When looking for a wedding venue, we noticed how much one venue cared even before we'd visited. They wanted us to have the fullest experience possible when visiting their venue, so suggested we come by one Saturday morning before a wedding, To View More >>

Yesterday our own self-confessed obsessive Johannes wrote about obsessive coffee brewers and photographers. How's this for an obsessive soda pop shop?

Check out this email we received from one enterprising Photojunction user: "FYI I just designed a 6ft car logo in Photojunction and it worked great. I suggest expanding your business to more than just albums!" That's certainly taking the meaning of 'flexible' to a whole new level. Do you have a similar story about how you've used Photojunction to do something a bit 'out of the ordinary'? We'd love to hear about it - let us know.
