  1. How do you use ifttt to cross post to Google Plus? I’m having a heck of a time figuring that out. Thanks in advance!

  2. On Frederick’s question about whether Twitter is over or not, it’s really that – among social networks – Twitter is singularly inconvenient for photographers. You don’t see nice big photos in your Twitter stream the way you do on Google+. That’s why I don’t really focus on Twitter for my photography. But as a WordPress developer, Twitter is indispensable. All the great Web developers and designers are on Twitter all the time, and I learn a ton that way.

  3. Skype audio is terrible and full of gaps. Fredick it is called a land line and phone card. Old sometimes means tried, tested and true.
