Tabblo in the Wall Street Journal

Wednesday, June 21st, 2006

Friend and fellow ex-Abuzzer Antonio Rodriguez’s company Tabblo is profiled in the Wall Street Journal (sub. req.).

We’ve been playing with Tabblo for the past week, arranging digital shots into collages — some with text descriptions and some without. Katie made a tabblo of pictures from a friend’s graduation party, and Walt made one of photos from the Journal’s recent “D: All Things Digital” technology conference.

We used various background colors, photo sizes, style arrangements and image effects, and got results that required very little effort on our part yet still looked professional and polished. An 11×17-inch Tabblo poster that we ordered turned out to be an attractive keepsake that displayed a bunch of photos all at once, eliminating the need to leaf through stacks of prints or scroll through hundreds of digital files.

This is a massive coup. Few startups get the Mossberg treatment.

Congratulations, Antonio!
