A random thought

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Just something that occurred to me today when I had someone looking at my Flickr photos. I purposely resize all the photos I put up in my Flickr account, and also in the galleries to be smaller than the original, for a couple of reasons. One, so they load quicker, two, to keep the storage size down on my hosting account and three, to keep myself easily within the monthly limits of the free Flickr account.

However, lest you think I’m being a scrooge about the original quality photos, if you happen to see something you like in any of those places, something you want to print, or use as wallpaper, or whatever, just drop me an email. Most of the time I have the full size photos and I’ll be glad to send them to you.

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    As discussed in the comments, using Bloglines might be considered a better way to limit the bandwidth I use in checking on feeds, since it checks once an hour and shares the feed with all of the subscribers to that feed. So I decided to give it a try. It’s better than I thought it…

  • Mark it down!

    I’ve complained about it when it doesn’t happen, so I guess I’ve got to give credit where credit is due. We have a new employee starting on Dec. 2, and I already know her name and where she’s going to work and what levels of access she needs. Will wonders never cease? 🙂 Follow these…

  • OpenOffice

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    A couple of year’s ago I checked out the Open Office suite in an attempt to see if it would work for everyday use. The big draw back at that time, and still today, was the lack of a database component comparable to Access. I use Access a lot in my job, since it’s part…
