For what its worth, I decided to give the Englaze Flickr Backup to DVD service a try. Ordering was pretty easy- pick one of the last 200 photos to be printed on the label (I chose my hammock perspective), enter a title, etc, and provide a credit card. I had a shade under 1000 photos, […]
… then the server move has been successful. You are viewing the same old dog blog on a new server host, with a shorter and more memorable URL: http://cogdogblog.com/ and its RSS feed: http://cogdogblog.com/feed/ If all goes well, all old links, RSS feeds, etc from the old host at cogdogblog.com/…../ will be automatically routed here.

Just randomly clicking the new feature links at the bottom of my flickr collection brought me to something I should get around top doing- getting a backup. Hey, what if Yahoo falls into the ocean?

More blogging via flickr… Maybe 1 or 2 readers may recall I’ve been doing all my personal book purchases at thrift stores. Sometimes, staring at a room stuffed full of […]
flickr foto Strawberry Mountain Reflectedavailable on my flickr Another photoblogged thing while I am tossing up a pile of new photos to flickr. I am continually fascinated by the reflections the bright Arizona light creates off of our 1999 VW Beetle. The car is fun to drive, but crikie! all the parts are plastic and […]

While on break, I had fun experimenting shooting in full manual mode with the Canon Digital Rebel XT. I forgot how much I […]
