Still using Google as photo transport. Why not?

Debugging blogger

Something wrong here. I recently posted a couple of photos, and they don't show up in my feed readers. This post is purely to see if my feed readers are getting *any* updates.

Photography blogging

Once my workday ends, and the MacBook relinquishes control of the starboard monitor, the ambient Chromecast slide show takes over and begins pulling from my ever-expanding online photo cache, of my own creation. A dedicated camera. A Nikon. Occasionally, one catches my eye as I hack away on the Ubuntu box on the port monitor, and I toss it into the "to be published" folder.

I should start publishing them.

Hey, this is my blog, isn't it?

Elon Musk has started an interesting chain reaction.

The Flight from Twittr (ah, remember those days, when the missing vowel was endearing) has led directly to the "alternatives-to" sections of websites filling to the brims with recommended replacements.

I just posted to Facebook and tweeted my Tweet with my latest nom-de-cyberverse: @jimrussell@mastodon.online

Mastodon reminds me of ILink, which was a collective of BBS's sending each other QWK packets. No one BBS owned the whole lot, but everybody had the whole lot.

Let's do this with Mastodon. This could work.
