The free 3gś of media space on WordPress has been quickly devoured by what has already been posted. I have added Flickr on the left side which is a photo sharing thingy thru Yahoo. With Flickr I should be able to load as many pics as I want and make them accessible to those who find this blog of any interest. As I said earlier this is meant for friends and family – to keep everyone updated on what we are doing, see the stuff I prattle on about in emails…There is no agenda other then that. Kind of obvious no?
Until now the most I have ever done with photos and computers is load them onto the hard drive, do some basic playing around with them on photo software and emailing them out — so this whole online photo-sharing thing is new to me. I have done my best with the blog privacy options to keep it from being publicly searchable and I am trying to do the same with the Flickr photos. I am doing this mostly because the photos have been taken by Ken, Steven, Alex and myself. The roommates have been beyond generous by giving me their storage media to load all pictures onto my laptop for this blog. I feel protective and responsible for the content of stuff that is not directly my own. Your asking why is she going on about this? Well…if anyone has problems accessing the photos on Flickr and find they cant live without seeing the photos 😉 put a comment on the blog or email me and I will tinker with it.
Last night we were at the ´15 Years is Enough…´ toilet exhibition. It was an incredible, interesting, surreal and heartbreaking presentation. Between Alex, Jibril, Steven, Rana and I we had 3 cameras going. Lots of cool/fun pics I have to go thru, and I want to go back tomorrow for another event, talk to some people and get more info to do the show justice when I sit down and try to relay the experience on this bloggy thingy.
Last (but so very far from least) of all…
SHIRLEY O!!!! I WISH YOU THE HAPPIEST BIRTHDAY. KNOWING YOU HAS ENRICHED MY LIFE IN SO MANY WAYS. THANKS FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT. I LOVE YA S.O.!!! XXX
*****UPDATE: The O.C.D. kicked in and there are pics posted on Flickr now. They may be semi sloppy at this stage and out of context and not properly credited. O.C.D. burns me out…patience and things will be neatened up within 2 days. PROMISE 🙂
