Upload my pictures
Diffusion

As I (independently) work on photo-sharing solutions, and also love photography, I have an account on pretty much all photo-sharing sites out there. Even with the upload utility that I develop (PictureSync†) I’ve only currently got my photos on some of the services. It’s a pity because all of the services have become communities each with their own characteristics, and I’m missing out on some of them. I must resolve to keep my photos updated on all the services, it is only a checkbox away…

take more cold showers (read all 2 entries…)
Switched Off

I was sort of cornered into resuming this as it seemed my water heater had bust, and it wasn’t until about a month later that I discovered one of the unmarked switches next to the shower turned it on. So that got me back into the habit, of course in a mildly warm climate like here it’s not really as bracing as it is refreshing. No excuses really.

I should also mention that (particularly if you have an electric heater) you’re saving a bunch of energy and thus reducing your environmental footprint. After a while you’ll probably find you don’t chill as a easily and can thus also reduce you heating thermostat and save some more.
