Kirk McElhearn sez: "What a great idea for the iPod photo (not the lowercase on the word 'photo', as per Apple's change today)! Using it to view cartoons! And not just any cartoons, but the 68,647 cartoons from the New Yorker, available on two CD-Roms with the new Complete Cartoons of the New Yorker book."
Why not use the iPod photo to view cartoons, especially those from the New Yorker? I recently wrote about The Complete Cartoons of the New Yorker, which is a wonderful book containing some 2,000 cartoons from the New Yorker, but also with more than 68,000 cartoons – every one ever published in the magazine – on two CD-Roms.
So, Perceval's idea is this: why not view the New Yorker cartoons on the iPod photo? Great idea, if you ask me; much better than vacation pictures. The question is, however, can it be done? Are the graphics of the cartoons good enough to view on such a small screen? Are the captions readable?
