Test SAT

Well, it didn't take me long to figure out how to post images. For all of you that are struggling to post your images or photos to the web, I have the answer.

Visit Google, go to their more>> page and then download two free programs:
Blogger
Picasa

Once you have Blogger installed, you can create a blog (that's kind of the reason its called Blogger). Then after you have Picasa installed (think Picasso), it will search your entire computer and find photos and images you didn't even know you had (or might have forgotten). In order to post images to Blogger from Picasa, you'll need one more free program, called Hello.

Hello is basically "instant messaging" for image files. It's quick, simple and low on calories. Hello (the software, not the greeting) has a nifty bot installed, called BlogBot (go figure) that can automatically upload images from Picasa to Blogger. The learning curve is very horizontal. Did I mention that these programs are free?

Hooray Google!

Please enjoy my random shots of sights around Southern California. Just click an image to get a larger view. Soon I'll be uploading photos from my desert camping trip to Rhyolite, NV.

Trying Something New

Well, here's my first attempt at a blog. Not sure how this will work out, as I really just want to use this as a platform to share photos via Picasa 2. I don't think I'll enable comments just yet...
