If you have ever posted anything on any of the social community sites (Craigslist, Backpage, Kiijji, eBay) you will sooner or later get an email response from a a person that usually makes no sense whatsoever and always includes a picture with an email address for you to respond to.
For example:
Now, I know this is some sort of SPAM fishing email that wants to snare you into some devious, evil, trap therefore I have never responded to the email pictured. But, I really want to know who the woman behind the little signs is. Actually, I really don’t want to know her, I want to know what she really looks like. I mean, come on… take a look at that chest!!! She reaches out of the computer screen every time she emails me and hypnotizes me with her enormous endowments.
From what I can tell in the pictures is that she must be in her early 20′s, about 5’2″ to 5’6″, somewhere between 110-120lbs, and due to skin tone and fingernail shade I am willing to bet that she is either a natural blonde or a ginger.
Yes… I am obsessed but I will not fall into her devious trap. She will not get my email.
Yes, I am weird… but someone has to ask these questions.
After seeing this article which says the new generation iPad 2 is rumored to have not only one but two cameras (one rear and one front facing) I began to think to myself… Self, does that even make sense?
Yeah, I agree that having a front facing camera on the iPad would make sense for Facetime and the rear facing camera would make it easy for taking pictures but the question that needs to be asked, at least by me, is…Do you really want to use an iPad as a camera or as a video conference device?
I am willing to bet that most iPad owners, like myself, are also iPhone owners and that already has both cameras for both functions and they work quite well. I just can’t see myself holding up my iPad and taking a picture of a landscape or a group of people. The iPhone is a lot easier and convenient to do that. Facetime on the other hand would be real cool on the iPad since I find it easier to hold than the iPhone when I use it (the iPhone) for Facetime.
So my opinion is that it makes a lot more sense for the upcoming iPad 2 to have a front-facing camera only and for Apple to create a built in, and effortless, method to transfer pictures from the iPhone to the iPad so that the iPod is your primary picture taking device.
But what do I know?
BTW… still working on my iPad blogging guide…or at least if I can do one without killing it first.

So I decided to test this whole iPad blogging and see if it’s actually feasible to use the iPad to create, author, edit, and maintain a blog. This would have to include picture editing and FTP uploading. Most of these things are easily done with existing apps but until iOS4 comes to the iPad it should be interesting to see how easily it can be done without having multiple-tasking or app switching.
First thing I have noticed is the ability to type on the iPad is quite fast but anyone who has used the iPad should already know this.
I plan to list all apps that I have used that seem to make blogging easier. So far I have used a WordPress app, a text app, a Dropbox app, a photo editing app, an FTP app, and a photo/file transfer app to move items between the iPad and my PC. I am sure more are coming as I play with this.
This should be fun.

After more than a year I decided to bring back my blog. Restoring it was actually really easy and I was happy that i did not lose any of my old posts…until I realized that I deleted my image folder. DUH!!!!
Not sure if I will be able to restore all the images but I will give it a try. If I can’t I will chalk it up to a learning experience and move on.
I will definitely restore the remuxing guide even if I have to re-create each of the images one-by-one.
