Self Indulgence

Well,
I don't have much to say, or more to say than time to say it. Things are moving smoothly? toward our July wedding. We are going to Bannf next week, and I am off to Winnipeg this week. I am not particularly looking forward to a trip to Santa Barbara on Friday, but such is life, and how can I complain about that?

I tried iWeb, not very nice, I don't trust the site navigation, and I haven't much been a fan of templates anyway. Once you decide, I'm sure it's not an issue. I haven't noticed the template here since I started months ago. But I think I will stick with the web page export from iPhoto in the future.

Photos

I have added some photo pages from iPhoto onto my other site djuber.com using iWeb. The old iPhoto2 had a web page output, it was ugly. The new one (from ilife 06) is nicer looking. Neither can handle direct ftp uploads (I think this is an intentional shortcoming on apple's part to sell more .mac memberships). I am moderately happy with the outcome. The site navigation links at the top of the page work great locally, but get chewed up on the remote server. This required some manual editing on my part. Clunky.

registered

This weekend, Beth and I registered at Sears and Target.
Both stores required a computer setup prior to 'shopping'. Sears had me hand over my ID in case I wanted to keep the scanner. Target did not. The Sears scanner was a kind of palm piot that sat on a gun. Numerous times the scanner went to sleep and had to be turned back on. There were times that the scanner didn't recognize items on the shelf. There was a manual entry system, but it required using the palm handwriting recognition pad. This was a little awkward.
Target just handed us the scanner (and a gift tote.) and away we went. The scanner was a cleaner interface, and a little more fun to use.

I recommend registering for just about anything you would want to do. I am excited to register for my thirtieth birthday!
