Blogs And Photos Back Online

The last minute decision to only bring my laptop in the move has raised the dilemma of having no way of hosting either my blog or photos online. Both of which I'm going to use the most now, more than ever.

However, tonight I've sorted out both problems, temporarily hosting my blog on Blogger and thanks to the brilliant suggestion of my wife, my photos on Picasa. I'd signed up for Blogger the other day, and wasn't too impressed with no easy way to import from my actual blog, nor manually set the times of posts. While I haven't found a solution to the first issue (cutting and pasting from my actual blog is a bit of a pain, but will have to do for now), the time issue was just an oversight on my part. I even got the theme looking mostly like my actually blog. Some cleaning up is still required, but it'll do. For now, Lead Thoughts is now at

http://lead-thoughts.blogspot.com/.

Picasa has worked out perfectly, given the desktop application to do all the syncing. I really had no interest of uploading each photo manually (one of the reasons I use Photobox), and given the internet speed here, it'd be an absolute nightmare. So thank god for the automation in uploading provided by Picasa! For now, my photos are here:

http://picasaweb.google.com/mark.ord/.

All I can say is that Google rocks, given that I'm using them for about everything right now (mail, calendar, blog, photos).
