I'm a genius!

So, I'm scrolling through my emails, looking for one in particular. I stumble across one of those family centered emails with updates on the family, the kids, the job, etc... that's addressed to 100 of the person's closest family and friends. You know, one of those personal heartfelt emails.

And something occurred to me...THAT'S the true purpose of a blog. That's a GREAT use of a blog. Pour all of your pictures, family excitement, moves, trials, tribulations, etc... into it. Set it up, send out the url to those 100 close family & friends and let them tune into your excitement. That way, you're not killing their connection with the update complete with 4 HUGE pictures you attached without sizing them, brining their computer (and threatening their work machine) to a complete halt.

Or, if the blog is too much, how about employing the use of Snapfish or EasyShare to host your pictures. Those services are free to set up; your friends can flip through all of your magical moments; and they can order nice copies instead of printing them out on the work computer.

Remember, technology is your friend.
