home now

[cellio]

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.

I use Flickr, and am happy with it. It allows you to point to individual pictures, to groups of pictures (either by creating a set or by tag) or to all your pictures; you can title and caption your pictures (and comment) and retain control with various degrees of public / private posting and a variety of licences including Creative Commons (but defaults to your absolute copyright). The possibilities of groups and contacts gives it quite an LJ feel (including that you don't have to go there).

I didn't find the upload limit a problem (partly because I don't upload full-quality images: it's a control-freak thing), but was lured into a paid account before my first year was out.

This is my account (http://www.flickr.com/photos/she_who_must/), if you want to see what it does...

It is part of the Yahoo empire: I don't know if that's a disincentive for you.
