Flickr.
Wow.
If you don't know what's going on at www.flickr.com... You should. It took me a while to really delve into it and truly grasp the power of Flickr.. But now that I have, I am powerless to fight it. Flickr has won me over. I think I owe this entirely to Kris Bell, who hooked me up with a Pro account, as he had two to give away as part of Flickr's promotion for people who had already shelled out the measly $24.95 it takes to become a Pro member. This entitled me to Unlimited storage space for my photos (UNLIMITED!), 20gb (!) of upload bandwidth a month, and several other perks that you don't quite get with a free account. But even if you can't scrap up 25$ of change underneath your car seats, the free accounts are just as good for browsing, finding favorites, and making friends.
If you aren't yet convinced that flickr is the greatest thing since cheez whiz, look at these collective group projects that ANYONE can participate in!
Flapface!
Jumping!
Transparent Monitors!
Funny Faces!
So I direct you to my photos, here, and seeing as the main purpose (despite rare updates) of this site was to share pictures, I can't see that I'll be using it for that very often, as flickr is FAR superior when it comes to all that.
So I bid you adieu, and may we meet again in the flickr universe.
