I stumbled upon a story today that truly upsets me. Nik Software, a company who I have endorsed and vouched for from the day I purchased their product, was purchased by Google today.

I think we have all seen what goggle has done to many websites that have now seen better days, but I am truly disappointed that Google has bought Nik. Their site simply had this message to say to their users:
We are pleased to announce that Google has acquired Nik Software. For nearly 17 years, we’ve been guided by our motto, “photography first”, as we worked to build world class digital image editing
