Well, I tried...

Alright...so I figured out that, at least for now, I can't link to the page with the pics that are automatically uploaded from my phone. I suppose that makes sense and they're just trying to prevent someone from accidentally sharing something they didn't want other people to see. Still think I should be able to decide that for myself, but whatever. I've transferred all the pics on the phone into a new folder. There are some bad pics but at least this gets it out quickly! Thanks for your patience!

Get pictures as I take them!

OK so I admit it. I'm pretty bad at getting pics up here. I'm also not so great at posting on here. I have no excuse except that I'm going through some crazy life stuff at the moment and...well, I'm just a procrastinator and staying on top of things is not my forte. I'm working on it! But it is, and will probably always be to some extent, a work in progress.

Which is why I LOVE it when I find something that makes life just a little bit easier (aka less work for me). I joined Google+ the new social media site from Google. Long story short, it has a function that allows my phone to automatically upload pics (and video) I take on my phone so you see them almost as fast as I take them. It stores them in a private folder that works just like any of my other folders on Picasa. Thus, if I give you the link to the slideshow (just as I have been all along), you will be able to access that folder which will keep adding pictures and video I take on my phone! Neato! I will still organize and whatnot and of course this doesn't include pics from Stephen's phone or my mom's phone or our cameras or anything except my phone, but at least this will get some of the pictures to everyone faster! Hooray!

FYI - It uploads EVERY picture I take, even those that aren't of Zoe so just be aware of that. Don't worry, I'm also aware of that so I'll use good judgement in taking pictures:-) It also uploads EVERY picture, even the ones that look bad and I eventually will delete.

Without further ado, here's the link:


Enjoy!
