Flickr and fotos…

I’ve realized that I am a geeky-kinda guy. To be honest, this is not a new revelation. I was told this by a friend over 6 years ago. Reading stuff on html for fun is not a general occupation by any means. So to this end I have been experimenting with a way to get photos off of my cameraphone and into useful places, like Flickr for example. I set up a little routine that when I send a photo to the computer, the photo is automagically imported into iphoto ready to edit / upload etc. So far so good. Seems to make the process a bit easier.

I’ve been complaining about this cameraphone for a while now, and this is my attempt to try one more time with it. Turns out that the photos look good on the computer, but look really bad onthe camera. A one inch screen doesn’t do anything justice it turns out.

I also installed Lightbox onto the site. This makes any pictures I put on the site turn into wonderful animations in a screen overlay when they are clicked. It is a usability thing as well as looking damn cool. It saves the user the jarring experience of shifting away from the site when an image is clicked. No more back button. :) See I’m doing this for you. Of course, whether this works with flickr or not is another story… hmmm…

Maybe I should get back to reading for class…

    haha while you may be geeky, I find myself drawn to numbers and budgeting and planning out different ways to pay back my loan with different variables to see the different changes in interest. Seriously, I have created spreadsheets that divide up percentages and interest and amounts…

    Oh, I can even top your reading HTML – I find myself reading financial articles and books “just because”.

    And here I thought I hated math all along :P

    Wait .. I guess that makes me a geek too!
