Photoblogs.org - The Photoblog Resource

A great resource for PhotoBloggers and PhotoBloggees alike is Photoblogs.org - The Photoblog Resource: "Photoblogs.org is a resource designed to help people find all kinds of photoblogs." You can list your own blog and check out the many listed on the site. I think they have about eight thousand photoblogs listed on the site. Not only can you search for blogs, but the folks at this website have lists of Top blogs and Hot blogs, as well as new ones. You can even search by country and by language. Check it out.

New York Times: New Ways to Manage Your Photos

Instead of a photo, I thoght I would recommend some software. I read this article, State of the Art: New Ways to Manage Your Photos, a few weeks ago and have now become an avid fan of Google's Picasa 2. I had been a fanof a combination of Photoshop Album and Elements to organize and touch up my pictures. For these two tasks, Picasa is simpler, easier to use and simply better. For more advanced editing, I still think Elements is the way to go. I also use Picasa's Hello software to upload my photos to this blog and Picasa and hello are very well integrated. Read the Times article for a better written review of Picasa than I could give you.
