Learning is Change

You know what takes a long time?

 

You know what takes a long time?

Using Duplicate Annihilator to search through your 30,000 pictures in iPhoto to get rid of duplicates. We are heading into Day 2.

The only thing that took longer was uploading to Google Music.

Backup your entire Flickr account to your hard drive

I looked around for a tool to do this for about an hour last night. This was the best way I found because it can run in the background and if it gets interrupted, it will pick up where it left off. Just open up terminal and run the script.

dan/hivelogic-flickrtouchr at master – GitHub:

“A Python script to grab all your photos from flickr and dump them into a directory, organized into folders by set name.

Original author is Colm MacCárthaigh.

Changes include tweaks to download full-size original images and improvements in handling UTF8 file and photoset names.

Run it like this:

mkdir FlickrBackupFolder

python flickrtouchr.py FlickrBackupFolder

You’ll be prompted to authorize with Flickr, and then the magic happens.”

 

Google+: A collaborative Document

This Google Document is pretty much everything you will ever need to know about Google+. It has been written by hundreds of people all around the world and it is quite exhaustive but easily approachable. I highly recommend it as a starter’s guide, or as a way to figure out how to get the most out of Google+

Google+ Tips and Tricks – Google Docs

So, I am going to do this too while the Google+ Iron is still hot.

I would love to create a circle for Colorado EdTech folks. I have been trying to do it as I recognize people, but it would be wonderful if you all would self identify with your location and/or School District.

I’m looking forward to having some scheduled and impromptu hangouts amongst the CO learning Crew.
