We’ve often heard Photoshop namechecked in pop culture, from The Daily Show to CSI, Desperate Housewives to Casino Royale.  Until now, however, I hadn’t seen it appear in a novel. Photoshop staffer Zorana Gee reports,

I was reading Douglas Coupland‘s new book (JPod) on my flight home from
Michigan and was pleasantly surprised to find that on page 258 is a
reference to most of Photoshop 7.0 engineers and managers (taken from the
splash screen).

His book is filled with random and often gratuitous references to many
mundane things we often face/see/are bombarded with in this ‘internet-era’ –
so our splash screen names have managed to infiltrate into the subconscious
minds of our customers…cool. 🙂

Say it with me: Seetharaman Narayanan, Seetharaman Narayanan… 😉
