Wow: According to my iPhoto count, I took about 5,700 photos this year — that's almost 500 a month! And that's not counting photos I took for work. As much as I'm a photography buff, I am also pretty social, and feel the need to capture all events (and even when your friends might look at you like you're a paparazzo, they'll appreciate it later when they have the photos).
And I don't just have a hallway full of framed photos to show for it; my boyfriend and I always play a slideshow on our TV when we entertain, so our friends can enjoy the old shots. It's my favorite way to use the photos I took, and I never have to sort through event photos for the "best" ones (though I do that too with my framers).
What do you do with your photos?
I belong to a few online book communities (GoodReads is my fave), and after spending some quality time adding members as friends and circulating around the site to see what other people like, I can end up with some recommendations about books to read.
But sometimes I don't have the time to spend searching and I need instant suggestions on what I would like.
On What Should I Read Next?, all you have to do is enter in a book's title and author, and you'll get several suggestions about what you should curl up with next (along with links to comments and where to buy that book).
