Ten years ago, if you were designing a laptop bag and wanted to see what people carried in theirs, you could either a) hire a research firm or b) get a job in airport security. But now ID Ethnographers need look no further than Flickr. (For those too lazy to dig through the link, hit the jump for our compiled roundup of shots.) It's not as in-depth as a focus group, but you also don't have to provide cookies, juice, and those envelopes filled with crisp hundred-dollar bills.

I'm not saying the information you can get from this isn't useful but for God's sake don't throw around terms like "ethnography" if you don't know what they mean.
well you can get a glimpse at least into that set of people who think its desirable to photograph the contents of their bag and post them online. nothing against the bunch by any measure, but its certainly a deviation from the normal.
