PDC (Post Digital Camera!) I decided to clean up some of my older pics that were from scans, and simultaneously add to the pattern links, so now my blog is in some sort of shape. Will have to do it again I suppose before I cover all my projects.

I’ve got my digital camera, a Canon PowerShot A400, which is pretty much an entry-level camera with 3.2 megapixel resolution and 2.2x optical zoom, but I think it is adequate for my needs.
I promptly clicked some pictures of my larger crochet projects, which wouldn’t fit into my scanner. And now they litter my blog. 😀

He’s a friend, and I’m so thrilled!

Fits me beautifully (better than my crocheted items!) even more so because we don’t need woollens/don’t use most of the stuff where I live!

Different aspects of buying digital cameras. You can’t stop me drooling over the higher-end ones, even if they’re not for me.

Good story to read; I am still undecided if I am undecided (!) or a budget buyer.

So just before I log off, I thought I’d record what I’ve been through after opening my very own blog.
Signing up and creating my first blog was pretty easy-so easy in fact that I got over-ambitious and decided to check for add-ons. The first one was more or less mandatory: I need to be able to post photographs, so a Hello account made sense, especially since I already have Picasa. So that was done successfully and I uploaded my first photograph, after some tearing-out of hair 🙂
Then I got stuck on Blogrolling in a vain attempt to increase traffic to my blog. Phew! For a html novice like me, it takes some doing, I must say. BUT it’s been done, so you can see a basic set of links on my sidebar.
I’ve also checked out Google’s AdSense to put ads on my blog. Have applied, will find out if they will give me ads in a couple of days. Stay tuned for news on that.
That’s enough name-dropping for today, I think. Time to log off and go for my solitary dinner: Sridhar is on overnight duty. I’ve also got a couple of new crochet patterns I can’t wait to try out!

It is one of my favourite lines of dialogue: “The Thane of Fife had a wife; where is she now?” From Shakespeare’s Macbeth. It seems to cover a lot of things that happen in life, speaking as a chronic underachiever. 🙂
I doubt anybody will ever read these pages, but the space is there and so am I…
