cellio | home now

I got home around 9:30 this morning, a mere (!) 22 hours after our first plane left Eilat. Oof. Good trip and I'll write some wrap-up stuff later (and about our last day), but in the meantime, some requests:

1. Please tell me about things you think I should know from the last two weeks.

2. What's your favorite photo-hosting site? I want to post some pictures to my LJ but point to bigger buckets of them (for those who care). I care about individual-photo URLs (for said posts), being able to add captions, and retaining ownership; if people can leave comments (per photo or per gallery) that's cool, but not essential.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

http://flickr.com/ is the standard answer for photo hosting. The free accounts limit you to 100MB uploaded per month. They rely on Flash and Javascript rather heavily, though.

Yahoo Photos has some nice integration with Tivo and Target. It might be a nice way to go if you think that people will want to make nice hardcopies of the pictures.

http://photobucket.com/ offers hosting and is widely used, but there are bandwidth limits and the site makes me nervous -- I don't see how they make money, and they ask for too much personal info. Sounds like a good way to get onto spam lists (or worse).
