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.

    No seriously, I attended an Internet Security Systems demo/seminar this morning and they gave away t-shirts with big smiley faces and “Security is Happiness” printed under them. They’re pretty silly looking, I’ll try and webcam it tonight so you can see what I’m talking about. The seminar was decent, it’s always humorous when you setup…
