More improvements to the new Kodak Gallery

Mark Cook
Kodak Gallery Product Management and Marketing
Last week we added more things to Kodak Gallery you folks have been asking for. 

Big Beautiful Full Screen Slideshow
-  You can view and share your Kodak moments in a glorious full screen view. It's amazing how good your pics look and what you notice in them when you see them in our new slideshow. Your friends will be blown away. A tech writer even said to me "wow, that's mac like"



Facebook Sharing - yep, we finally did it. Upload your pics to the Gallery and share via Facebook.  You use our photo tray to pick the pics you like and then simply select share to Facebook and your pics are posted as a link to a gallery slideshow on Facebook. Here is what's super cool- No more little Facebook pics. Now its big beautiful pics from Facebook. (see big beautiful slide show above). If you want to share lots of pictures no problem, you don't clog your friends news feed with a hundred photos. And all your pics are now in one place, Kodak Gallery.



New books and a new way to make them - we added three new books a small 5x7 autofill book, a paperback 8x10 book and a large 12 x 14 printed cover book. With the autofill book you select your pics with the photo tray and either just blast them into the book or arrange the sequence. You can also now arrange pages and drag and drop pictures form page to page. Super easy to be creative or just simply make a great book without any hassle. We also added a bunch more layouts

What's next?  We are working making the new Kodak Gallery even easier and faster and a few new cool things as well.

Thank you for helping us make the Kodak Gallery better and check out this 1000 Words blog post to see how to get your free $15 gift!

Who's Been Naughty this Year? New Wave of Inkjet Ads Will Drive Holiday Sales.

Joe Nardone
Inkjet Marketing Communications Manager
Why keep buying more expensive ink when you can replace the printer instead? Just in time for the ho-ho-ho-lidays, we're launching a new wave of advertising this weekend as part of our Inkjet Print and Prosper campaign. So far the campaign has been a huge success at driving awareness (and sales!) of our inkjet printer solution to Big Ink's trickery. We'll be online & on-air through the holidays, but check out a couple of new TV spots now.



This ad aims to get people to think ink, and switch to a Kodak printer.



This one calls out Big Ink's naughty practice of charging high prices for ink.

'Tis the season to stop overpaying for inkjet printer ink!  See how much you can save by visiting printandprosper.com.

Rochester Economic Summit - Eyes on the Future 2009

Sharon DiTucci
Tenant Relations & Marketing for Eastman Business Park
More than 1,400 people participated in the Eyes on the Future 2009 annual economic development summit on Friday October 16 at St.John Fisher College, with Eastman Business Park the naming sponsor, and Greater Rochester Enterprise (GRE) the host of the event.

The purpose of the event was to promote collaboration and engagement among businesses, organizations and individuals in the Greater Rochester Region. The event also included a business and career event, EyesExpo, which preceded and followed the general session.

Fifty companies exhibited to include Eastman Business Park (EBP) which featured a large screen virtual model of available properties, and drew great interest from attendees.   In addition, several EBP key suppliers participated in the expo, along with a Kodak booth that featured our newest digital consumer products.
 








The summit highlighted a keynote address by Richard A. Bendis, president and CEO of InnovationAmerica, who emphasized how improving the economy requires a focus on an area's strengths, not its weaknesses.

The keynote highlighted the Greater Rochester Region's significant potential with 19 leading educational institutions, a skilled and talented workforce and a vibrant network of innovative businesses. He also called on business, political and community leaders to connect and work together on supporting entrepreneurial growth to further enable the nine-county area to successfully compete with the rest of the country.

GRE presented its Intellectual Density Quotient (IDQ), which provides a measure of the region's workforce in several areas.   IDQ includes the percentage of the population enrolled in college, patents issued per worker, the number of workers trained to excel in a knowledge-based economy and the number of companies ranked among the best places to work in the country.  Based on these criteria the nine-country Rochester Region outperforms communities five times its size.  For more information visit www.rochesterbiz.com.

It was a great event and another valuable opportunity for Eastman Business Park to share who we are and the outstanding features we have to offer.
