Observing the Blog Creation Process

I find it really cool seeing parts of the creation process through mugshot. Sometimes I see brad upload videos to youtube, behdad put photos on flickr, and jdub add delicious links before they create a new blog entry.

Some people upload everything at once just before blogging it or they upload things and a while later a blog entry comes along. They are all different and unique in their process and it makes them fun to see in action.

I am Jack’s Geek Photographer

Yesterday I joined the ranks of many other geek photographers when my Canon 400D arrived. Thanks to the recommendations of many I’m really happy so far and can’t wait to take more!

And if you were on Mugshot you would have already seen my creation process in action as I added new albums to my Picasa. I can’t choose which service to use, Flickr or Picasa, so I’ll just keep juggling between them as I have free space.

  1. Yay, congrats on getting a 400D!

    I like Picassa because it doesn’t ever resize images, but I haven’t found a way to bulk upload in Linux other than running wine + ie + google’s picassa Active X control.

    Do you know of another solution?

  3. If you bring Mugshot into discuss, I can say I prefer Picasaweb myself (for subjective reasons against Yahoo) but I find its Mugshot integration lacking – the *album* feed, not the *photos* feed.

  4. Schlaegel: Yes, I usually run window to upload my photos to picasa, I don’t know another way.

    Nicu: The access picasa gives us only reveals that there was a new album or photos changed in an album. AFAIK there isn’t a better way to know what photos changed exactly.

  5. Yeah, I know about the feeds produced by Picasa.
    Maybe one can subscribe the feed for a particular album on which he want his friends notified, like this: http://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/base/user/clarkbw/albumid/5062411797083114561?kind=photo&alt=rss&hl=en_US

    Not sure, maybe Mugshot could use some freeform feeds, so people can subscribe whatever websites are they using. For example quite a lot of people use deviantART.com.
