As you can see, I don&#8217;t use it much, as I use <a href=\"http:\/\/willotoons.fotki.com\/\">Fotki<\/a> for all my photo needs, but it&#8217;s a REALLY awesome site, and an absolutely impeccable example of the brilliant ways you can use flash!<\/p>\n<p>Anyway &#8211; another fun thing on flickr is to check out all the tags. See all the <a href=\"http:\/\/flickr.com\/photos\/tags\/willo\/?\">photos under the &#8220;willo&#8221; tag<\/a>? There you can see <a href=\"http:\/\/vedana.net\/\">Eric<\/a> posted <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/case\/3819361\/\">a shot of us using the iSight<\/a> tonite :) We virtually geeked out!! :) It was awesome. Also in there are a few shots <a href=\"http:\/\/shellen.com\/\">Jason Shellen<\/a> took of me at MacWorld05 that are really cool, because his camera is so NICE!<\/p>\n<p>Oh, so Eric&#8217;s shining tip of the day for me was to solve my problem of wanting to have the finder window expand all the folders in it at once&#8230; and ta-da! He *enlighted* me that you just select the ones you want to do that with (in my case Select All) and hit the command with the arrow right or arrow left. YAY! I often want to cut &#38; paste contents of my iTunes folder &#8211; or of a folder of artists\/albums I&#8217;ve put on a disc. This is exactly what I needed!<\/p>\n<p>::::<\/p>\n<p>Recently I was realizing my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mozilla.org\/products\/firefox\/\">Firefox<\/a> was *really* buggy &#8211; so I exported my bookmarks and started brand new! And it&#8217;s FABULOUS!!!! Muuuuuuuuch better. So then tonite I got extensions happy &#8211; as I knew there were a bunch out there I didn&#8217;t have yet &#8211; and I have GOT to tell you about The Coolest Extensions for Firefox! :)<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/autocopy.mozdev.org\/\">Auto Copy<\/a> &#8211; Often the only time you select text on a site is to copy &#38; paste it somewhere else. This automatically copies whatever you select to the clipboard. I&#8217;m not sure I can stop my hands from doing the apple+c anyway, though :)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/dictionarysearch.mozdev.org\/\">Dictionary Search<\/a> &#8211; I had this on my previous Firefox installation and I use it ALL the time. Love it.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.iosart.com\/firefox\/colorzilla\/\">ColorZilla<\/a> &#8211; this is RAD if you&#8217;re a Web Designer! Quickly grab hex#s, or the width of an object on a web page! FYI a paid tool of this nature, that looks pretty sweet, is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.iconfactory.com\/xs_home.asp\">XScope<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/downloadstatusbar.mozdev.org\/\">Download Statusbar<\/a> &#8211; instead of the downloads window in Firefox, it&#8217;s in a small bar at the bottom of your Firefox window. Very cool if you&#8217;re like me and you get sick of either having the download window in your way, or what not. This keeps it all within the same window.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/jgillick.nettripper.com\/copyplaintext\/\">Copy Plain Text<\/a> &#8211; For Web Designers like me that just need the text sometimes and want none of the formatting that is associated with it. (often depends what you&#8217;re pasting it into, but handy if it comes up to not have to first paste it somewhere else, copy it again &#38; THEN paste it where you need it&#8230; you dig?)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/downthemall.mozdev.org\/\">downTHEMall<\/a> &#8211; THIS IS THE COOLEST THING EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So say you want to go to a band or a label&#8217;s site and download all the MP3&#8217;s they&#8217;re offering up (linking to). This does that!!! Do what I did and add a filter called &#8220;Music&#8221; and put the file type .mp3 in there &#38; then when you hit the downTHEMall link again, select it as your filter &#38; it will *automatically check all the mp3&#8217;s* (SO COOL!) and you hit download &#38; wala! I even have it set to notify me when it&#8217;s done &#8211; that way I can go import them into iTunes and listen away! :)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/ackroyd.de\/googlepreview\/\">GooglePreview<\/a> &#8211; When I saw this I just *had* to try it.. And it&#8217;s cool!! Instead of having to click over to a site, you get to see a little thumbnail of it right there on the search results page! NEAT!<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/sage.mozdev.org\/\">Sage<\/a> &#8211; I  haven&#8217;t tried this out yet, but found I don&#8217;t use my BlogRolling list anymore since it doesn&#8217;t seem to work as a sidebar on mac &#8211; so I&#8217;m looking forward to checking this out!<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/jgillick.nettripper.com\/tinyurl\/\">TinyURL Creator<\/a> &#8211; I heart tinyURL&#8217;s.<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you seen my photos on Flickr?
