Effects of Wind and Water

Ten years ago, creating a journal of our trip was laborious: we had to hand code everything. But at least we didn't have to figure out which tool to use; all we had was BBEdit.

But kids today, with the tweets and the blogs! Back in my day, we had to hand code in the snow, uphill both ways. Figuring out which tools to use, and how to integrate them is, well, not mind boggling, just tedious. So far, we're gravitating toward a combination of blogger, flickr, and twitter.

The last is because there's a simple widget to load tweets into blogger. We will figure out some way to incorporate facebook, too, since most of our friends are actually there, and we want them to find here.

If you would like to, you can see more photos from my flight. (Not very interesting, really, unless you're four years old, and probably not even then.)
