Aren't our parents supposed to be UNCOMFORTABLE with technology... all slow to adopt new gadgets and forms of communication and whatnot? Well, somehow I ended up in an early adopter family. I get digital pictures from all over. Genuinely old people email me (ha-ha, now you have to paranoidly guess who I'm talking about, family!) Well, what to do with all this virtual media that I can't handily tape into a scrapbook ... I guess I need to start a family photo album online here.
This is a first take - more work to come. If anyone knows of any interesting online albums that are more ... scrapbooky, or just more interesting than pressing the next button a hundred times, let me know. I tried Sony's Screenblast, but it was very unsatisfactory - clunky user experience, easy to lose everything, nothing to standardize the photos that were uploaded, etc.
Oh, and, above, much to Auntie's horror, I'm sure, is a fun photo of: Aunt Sharon, Dad, Aunt Cathy, Uncle Ralph - taken at the Uncle's place out in Camas, WA.
