“Covers have been the storefront attraction of magazines for decades, and big-budget magazines like Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar and Vanity Fair regularly schedule costly photo shoots with star contract photographers like Richard Avedon, Patrick Demarchelier and Annie Leibovitz. But editors of magazines with less spectacular budgets, like Men’s Health, are increasingly paying more attention than ever to the cover, which with its magical mix of images, buy-me colors, stimulating promises and alarm-sounding headlines can induce readers to pluck a magazine off a supermarket or newsstand rack.”

“From deserts to polar lands, coastal regions to cosmopolitan cities, the Earth From Above project has been capturing our home in all its natural and man-made glory. And all on Fuji film. Helmed by acclaimed aerial photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand, this project was launched in 1996, and has been under the patronage of UNESCO ever since. While Yann’s works will be exhibited at major cities all over the world in the year 2000 to commemorate the end of the millennium, we hope to expose his work to as many more people as possible for a long time to come through this web site.”

“An Integrated User-Centered Approach for Project Teams: Project success depends on the fit of a product or service with user goals and needs. Project manageability depends on a solid shared foundation for swift and effective decision-making. The Team-Based Ethnography offers a methodology to achieve both. The Team-Based Ethnography enables project teams to get to know users and to design for their needs. It lets teams adjust basic project management processes instead of adding new activities onto the existing workload.”
