Re: Flickr... more

That's why people are buying these big trigagyte hard drives.

Oh yeah, I've had three hard drives fail--and each time, amazingly, the geeks have managed to rescue all of the data files. Does make you paranoid, though. And when you start backing stuff up, you quickly realize that music files are the real byte hogs. At present, I've got more than 6 gigabytes of music that I need to decide whether to burn or just delete.

Hi Jim-
I have an external hard drive that occassionally back everything up to. I've had a computer hard drive go bad once in the past- not fun at all. So, I understand the backup thing.

Meant to add this, but forgot. I store all my pix in a photo "archive" on my hard drive--about 1.6 gigabytes at present and organized into a gazillion folders [plants nested in folders by type, genus, species]. Every now and again, I burn it to a DVD just to be sure I'll keep it. Other stuff is not as maniacally sort, labeled, and stored, but I seem to be able to find it when need be.

Yeah. Think I'll use Flickr as the photo album for this list, for folks that are not on lists, and for photos [like Ms Fatma's wallpaper] that are not list oriented. All the other lists I'm on are Yahoo and have their own photo sections--so I can use their albums for them. Delete when I add just to keep it tidy.

Why delete when you add? What is your reason for keeping only 6 or 7 at Flickr? Are you storing more pics elsewhere, besides Dave's?

Hear it? We're having our first TS this morning. It's a pretty substantial one--enough so I won't be dragging hoses around this afternoon, even blocked satellite reception for a few minutes.
Haven't completely figured out what to do about Flickr. So far, I've just deleted all but six or seven pictures there. Maybe I'll just leave it that way, and delete one whenever I add one.
