Perhaps the best way to think of stolen bitcoin is as stolen art. Sure, we can hang it anywhere. Don’t expect to sell it at Christie’s. A resource that loses its value as soon as it is stolen, may be one that isn’t stolen. Delete the scoop?

Adobe Revel is a new app, working across Mac and iPhone and iPad which makes it extremely easy to import all of your photos, help you organize them into "libraries" and "albums", and to share them privately with your selected contacts. Adobe Revel also makes it easy to edit any image with a number of intuitive real-time controls and Instagram-like "effects". I must say, after having imported nearly 25,000 photos, that Adobe Revel is very simple, intuitive and straightforward to use. Learning time is zero and everything works like you expect it too. The free plan allows you to import unlimited pictures for the first 30 days, and then a maximum of 50 additional pics every month. The paid option, at $5.99/month, allows you to upload unlimited number of photos always. N.B.: For users with Android phones you can download Revel Importer. Revel Importer is not a full version of Revel but it does give you a way to import the photos on your Android phone into your Revel photo library. There is also a web version of Revel at www.adoberevel.com. The web version of Revel includes almost all the features of Revel EXCEPT the ability to edit your photos.

Clipzine is a web app which makes it easy to collect images from any website page and to visually organize them into page-based collections. On each page it is possible to place as many as 24 pieces of content and to decide how large or small each element will be. The user can expand each imported element over two or more tiles and move it around to any position. It is also possible to use one or more tiles to add custom text and information and to format it professionally. One key practical use of Clipzine that can be helpful in testing out its capablities is its ability to create a visual magazine of any Pinterest board. Just go to the selected Pinterest board page, click the Clipzine bookmarklet and select the unique Clipzine option to capture "all" images available on that page at once. Once captured all the images in a "zine", click on Edit / Syling and then on the Styling button that appears above each page content. Now hover with your mouse on any image in the collection and experiment with the feature buttons that appear around and in the center of each image. The final collection, called a zine, can be saved, published on the web, shared on social media, embedded on other sites or saved to a PDF file. My comment: This is one of the very few curation tools that leverages a tremendously powerful variable: control of positioning and size of elements in a collection. This is very useful as it empowers the curator to go beyond the linear top-down list or newspaper/magazine sequence and to create a more varied "equilibrium" between the elements in the collection. Promising concept. Powerful visual control in the hands of the curator. A bit disappointing implementation and not so intuitive and simple to use (for now). Free to use. Ad supported.

(From the article): I'd like the sense that someone of taste and discretion and experience has already whittled down the choices. (That's the problem with search engines, by the way - no taste!) The world needs editing - and yes, I use that word advisedly. Give me the cheeses that matter, offer me a wine list that's manageable. And put all the information that's raining down on us from cyberspace in a convenient, easy-to-handle form. Sorry, I never intended to be a defence of newspapers! Delete the scoop?
