  • Say hi to my elephant Kenze! w00t!

    Kenze the elephant

    This is Kenze. He’s my elephant. Well he’s not really my elephant but my family is fostering him along with several other elephants. For Christmas this year my family decided to skip the crass commercial part of Christmas and give to various charities instead. My father had recently been to Africa and saw many elephants in the wild. As a result he felt it was appropriate to sponsor 4 elephants for 1 year for my siblings and I! One elephant for each sibling. This is probably the best Christmas gift I’ve ever received. The idea is that you foster an orphaned elephant and help pay for them to be cared for until they’re ready to be released back into the wild.

    The amazing story of Kenze’s rescue and his current situation below. GO KENZE!

  • Auto Forward Gmail Photo Attachments to Flickr

    As you probably already know I use Flickr to manage and archive all of my images. I usually get at least one email forward from friends or family with photos in it. Instead of downloading these attachments and re-uploading them to Flickr I’ve set up a filter in Gmail to auto forward all image attachments to my upload by email flickr address. Of course I set them all to private by default.

    Now whenever someone sends me photos they get saved (privately) in my Flickr. Keep in mind the Flickr upload by email feature can be flaky and isn’t designed for huge files or large numbers of files. I also do the same thing for documents and spreadsheets except I use Google Docs instead of Flickr.

    If you’re on a mac you can copy something in the finder by option key -> dragging the item and then letting it go. This will make a copy of the file.
