Today is Sunday July 11th and Lenzr has been up for eleven days.  In that time seven photos have been uploaded, and one hundred and fifty votes have been recorded. There are twenty seven registered members and sixteen comments. But there’s so much new information about the growth and general reaction to Lenzr.com off site that it has become a daunting task to try and record it all every day.

Anyone seeking information about the birth of Lenzr should read Rob Campbell’s Smojoe blog which discusses the origins of Lenzr and the evolution of the photo contest from its germination on Dumpdiggers.com

Yesterday, Andrew Ainsworth of AndyFilmSchool.com sent me this link which is the New York Times reporting the success of their online photography contest.  Here the author alludes to the networking advantages that professional photographers enjoy when they participate in these types of events.
