Fotobounce: Share Your Photos With Security

I have taken a lot of vacations in the past couple of years. Lots of family time and SO much fun....I would love to share all the pictures of our trips with all of my friends and family. There are times when I take a picture and think, "I've GOT to send this to Mom....." or any other variation on that theme. Everybody loves looking at pictures and seeing what other people are up to. 

Have you read my Who, Moi?? tab up above?? In it, I tell you that I have OCD. Not the silly oh-I-need-to-fold-my-socks-just-right OCD but the kind that makes me check the locks constantly and doubt myself everyday. So.....something that really gets my OCD all revved up is having *everyone* see my photo's. I feel like I can't share pictures on Facebook, Flickr, Photobucket.....because it freaks me out that the whole world can see them and not just the people that I intended.


Enter Fotobounce
Fotobounce is a photo sharing site that gives you control over who see's your photo's. It is local to your computer, not part of some web photo storage site. You can invite only family and friends, if you please. Or, lots of people. But, you decide!! Fotobounce will even help by importing email contacts.

Here are some of my favorite fun facts:
*You can send emails invites with sneak peeks of the photo's you want to share.
*Great Security!! Fotobounce encrypts all photos with 128bit SSL....so, only the people you intended can see the photos. 
*You can see whether your friend/family "Bouncers" are on/offline like skype!!

Fotobounce also offers a handy "Face Recognition" feature that will tag the faces it knows accurately in your albums. Not only does it help to tag them....but if you were to decide to put some photo's on Facebook, it would transfer the tags and save you the time!!
 You can download Fotobounce for FREE for PC or MAC!!

All in all, I am completely happy with Fotobounce. It has helped to ease my mind....and in my book....that is BIG. I heart Fotobounce. :-)

I'm The Duck Duck Goose Champion

You better believe it baby. I rock at Duck Duck Goose. :-) Actually, if I could remember very well that far back, I would probably recall that I kinda sucked at "The Goose". I got all my height really early on....long legs, long arms, long chin (if you knew me, you'd chuckle at that one). But, all those characteristics make for a very awkward kiddo. Duck Duck Goose eluded me much more so than I ever eluded the kid I tapped goose. 

So, this Duck Duck Goose shirt (which can be found in the Vintage T Shirt category) from Nacho Mama Tees is my opportunity to win back some of the pride that I lost in gym so many years ago. :-) Think it'll work?? I'm sure people will believe me. You believe what you read right??

Something fun I did with this shirt at well was to make it a rough scoop neck from a tutorial I found on A.Steeds.Life. She gets some great results turning a plain tshirt in to a fitted, scoop-necked shirt. 
 I will be using this tutorial a lot in the next few weeks. I can just hear my husband now:

"Where are all my T-shirts!?!?"

If you are looking for more funny t-shirts.......check out Nacho Mama Tee's!!

Atlanta's Great

Contribution by Saul Martin

My parents live in Atlanta and it’s a great place to go down and visit. There’s so much to do there for the kids from the World of Coke to the Aquarium and they just like walking around in the city with all the big buildings. It doesn’t take much to make them happy! Anyway, I went to http://www.atlantahomesecurity.com/ before I came down last time because my husband had showed me a few articles from the paper talking about how their neighborhood was having some break ins and it got me spooked. Anyway, I hope they never move since it’s such a great place to go down to and they seem really happy there and that’s all you ever really want for your parents anyway, you know? I try to be a good daughter and they make it easy for me to want to visit when they live in a cool city – it’s much better than my husband’s parents who live all the way out in Kansas!
