Hacking on Photohub... 2008-01-27 03:55AM
I'm not entirely sure if it was a waking dream, a real genuine earthquake (I checked quake.usgs.org and didn't see anything) or somebody clomping around and causing the floor to shake, but thought I felt an earthquake the other day while sitting in bed trying to sleep. And I realized that I wasn't dogfooding Photohub nor using it to manage my photos. Which means that I'm not making backup disks of my photos, which is bad given that I've always been a little suspicious about the chances of a desktop hard drive surviving a good earthquake.
