Polaroid debunks Outkast photo shake
Fans of Outkast's mega-hit Hey Ya might want to "shake it like a Polariod picture," but the company says shaking its photos, which used to help them dry, isn't necessary anymore. The photo "never touches air, so shaking or waving has no effect," the camera company says on its web site. In fact, shaking or any rapid movement can damage the film. But then, "drying slowly, like a Polaroid picture" doesn't quite scan. - USA Today, Wed, Feb 18, 2004
Um, thank you very much Polaroid, you BIG FAT PARTY POOPERS! Sigh, so much for Polaroid taking advantage of this humongous marketing opportunity. Good luck with that whole, "we don't really 'get' popular culture since we can't reproduce it in our labs" stance you're making. I'm sure it'll be a hit with the kids.
