Our friends over at the National Association of Photoshop Professionals are keeping plenty busy these days:

• At PhotoPlus Expo in New York they announced the 2006 Digital Canvas Awards, “the first worldwide competition exclusively for Adobe® Photoshop® users.” Check out the contest site here.
• Photoshop Radio, we hardly knew ye: the broadcasts have already been upgraded to be Photoshop TV, now streaming as Flash Video and downloadable via iTunes.
• And sometime in the wee hours this morning, my boss Kevin Connor touched down in Tokyo. He’ll be giving the keynote address in the first ever Photoshop World Japan. Good luck to the whole crew. Maybe next year we can get Jeff Schewe to fly over and meet speaker Hiroyuki Hayakawa for an Intercontinental Battle of the Beards. 😉
