I'm never satisfied

Personal
The main reason I ever setup a blog was to have a
place to share photos with family across large
distances. As a consequence, I usually don't have
much to say here that would be news to any of my
regular readers. What is new occasionally
are photos I've taken recently and want to share. For
me, photos are my real stream of content. The blog
and whole website here are really just a framework to
support delivering that content.
In the past, I've looked at a variety of photo hosting sites. Some cost money, some are free but limit uploads, some better integrate with my iPhoto library than others, some are prettier than other, etc. Fact is I don't like any of them. I'm going to be playing with this site and ultimately may just shut it down and replace it with some other photo gallery somewhere. Lucky for me, I hear there's a .mac update coming soon...
In the meantime, check out the new page in the Photos section called "iPhone Pics". It's a .mac gallery that is intriguing because now that I take casual photos with my iPhone I can also upload directly to that page from my camera wirelessly, wherever I am (yes, I know this is somewhat possibly with other galleries). For me, this is the killer app because it establishes a direct link between my content stream (photos) and my audience (family mostly).
