Publishers Need Better Photography to Stay Relevant on the Web.
Most sites using images do it very casually, without putting in a lot of thought. Why would they when the image is just something they picked up to drop into the post. It has not meaning to them and often it is pretty meaningless in the post too.… Read the rest
