Most Sony digital cameras start saving photos with the following name "DSC00001.JPG" and a lot of people take these photos and upload them to the web, where the all-knowing, all-seeing Google later catalogs all of them. So by clicking this link you can see the first photo taken by someone with their new camera or newly formatted card for some cameras, this is what it looks like when thousands of Sony cameras lose their photo-virginity." One of the pictures found with this search is this one. I think they missed the bus to Shiny Rock Star Space Camp and decided to make their own. Updated from Engadget, apparently using DSC as a search string in P2P programs also works great for turning up things on peoples hard drives they they didnt know they were sharing. Funny stuff out there. This is why everyone should use an image management system where images are stored in places that google can't get to directly. Now, if only a good one existed.
