that's all I got. That's all I got.

This week comes from Seth, and Seth wants to know Jason, do you know how many author

pictures or photos you've written under under and what prompts you to change your picture

or avatar when you do?

I haven't counted.

I had a couple in high school or no in college where literally the photo editor would take

new photos of everybody every year in because they wanted them to be their

perfect art and I still got a couple of those kicking around. I got a picture taken when I was an intern at Mac user to be

mentioned in the column once by the editor-in-chief. And then as editor-in-chief of Macworld when I was writing my column there, I had a column photo.

And I don't remember. I think at some point, like they took my column photo and at some

point they wanted to all that have all the column photos matched so they took

another column photo and then at some point I think the art director of

photographer decided that they didn't like that one so then I had to go to the

photographer studio and take another column photo. I used that for a while. In my non-professional,

post-professional, whatever it is, magazine life now that I just am on the internet.

Sometimes I use pictures of me that I find acceptable.

I used a picture that John Gruber took of me at W. W.C. for a while.
