How my house connects
Sun, Jan 23, 2000; by Dave Winer.
Here are some pictures taken this morning with my Nikon CoolPix camera. I'm doing this now here in California, entirely from my laptop, to make sure I know how to do it from Davos and Boston.
Wet
It's still rainy. Everything's wet, and that means the creek behind the house is running. It'll run all winter, if it's a rainy year it'll run all thru the summer.
My property is on many levels. At the top level it's sunny, very much like what people think of California. But as you walk thru the alley between the house and the garage, you go down, then down some steps to a patio overlooking a creek, and then down more steps to a creek overlook. I didn't go all the way down into the creek today, it's a little wet, and I'm still mostly thinking about computers, not creeks.
Dan Bricklin who knows more about pictures than I do says I should use JPEG. I couldn't figure out how to get ImageReady to save JPEGs so I just uploaded the pictures without any cropping or sharpening. I don't know what I'll do if a picture needs rotation, so if you see GIFs in the next few days, chalk it up to me being a digital camera newbie.
BTW, in the first picture you can see the cable TV line and Conxion/PacBell T1 line coming in.
