I didn’t want to bother converting it, so I just forgot about it for a while. Flickr, on the otherhand, instantly uploaded and converted the file for me. All I had to do was pick the file. Since I’ve been ridiculously busy, I can’t beat the convenience factor with a stick! So enjoy!

You will notice the bright orange RSS logo on the side there… that now squishes my blog, del.icio.us links, and flickr images together for a nice big mess.  Just the way I like it.

Feedburner is not hard, but I had no patience for it.  I was under the assumption that you added your feeds, and there would be a grand final step where you could parse them all together.  I kept looking around for this final step, but it turns out this is not the case.  Instead, you choose one of your feeds, and then add little “enhancements” to pull in specific alternate feeds, such as del.icio.us, and flickr.  Lame, compared to what I was thinking, but much faster than writing my own parser.

Of course, I’m sure everyone else out there understood this, so I’m being redundant.  Oh well.  That’s what you get when you try to learn everything from scratch.

I don’t know why I feel so strongly about it, but my gut won’t let me avoid it. So of course, it’s ages before I feel alright showing anyone what I took.

Be that as it may, I’ve been focused the last 2 days, buring through many of them. I’ve got two sets down, with one remaining. I’ve posted the first two to my newly purchased flickr pro account (I ran over the 200 image limit, and want to continue to see the old ones.)ashes of kings

Check out my party/band shots, and my photos of Boston and ALCS game 2.
