Okay, NOW Facebook is paying off

Well, just this weekend, I've found two old Army buddies and a college roommate on Facebook. (or "Spacebook" and "MyFace" as I like to call them). That is cool. Still several people AWOL. I've put as much info as I can for them to find me. However, since I really didn't like most anyone I went to high school with, I haven't put my high school. One has found me anyway, through my sister.

Week 4, Photos

I've been doing photo stuff online for a long time. I've had a Webshots account since August 1999. (Is that really more than a decade ago?) My current capacity is: Photos 13,500, and Videos 1,350.


I've got a Flickr account, but it just stores photos for one of my blogs. And since they only allow 200 photos, I rarely do anything with it. Flickr is definitely the one to use if you want to be more social. I had a photobucket account I think, but the same thing as Flickr, they only let me have a few photos without charging. Of course, now Webshots has these annoying ads with sound that turn on every page you go to. So I guess that is the price to pay.

Any photos you upload to Blogger go to a Picasa album, but they don't tell you that. They are locked by default, but you can open them up to share.

Webinars

I forgot to post this last week, so this is quick. I've been involved in many webinars. I've been the one to receive the instructions, the one to enter the instructions that were mailed to someone else, and just as a participant.
