Images on the Internet
by Pat Darnell | Feb 22, 2013 | Bryan TX

For me one of the draws to the Internet is plethora of photo's and pictures... visual junkie that I am. But it is a grey zone when we share them. While TEXT is easily searched, IMAGES require many times more computer memory and power to search.

There are programs that crawl through the Internet looking for "pirated" images, and remove them from peoples' web pages. It has happened more than once to MooPig Wisdom, which has over 8000 pictures in its pages.

Syld, contributing author to MOM2POP, posted an image of a kangaroo basking in the sun to her faceBook page. She cannot find record of it today. The image was probably taken down from the Internet due to copy right issues.

I await the future development of "Internet IMAGE and TEXT policing," and thus the end of fun. Here are some images I found in Google Images, Kangaroos, and a Quokka:
