Live Photo Blogs
These are photo blogs that were updated live during my trips. What does that mean? Well, when I visit tourist attractions I usually post up to four pictures live on Twitter from each place. However, people have often told me that they would like to see more pictures and don’t want to wait for me to return and write a blog about it a few days later. So I decided it would be nice to upload all of my pictures onto the photo blog while I am still at the location. I do this by using a FTP program on my smartphone and uploading the photos to a folder on my website. If you refresh a page while I am on a trip, new pictures will automatically appear each time I finish uploading. This is why I call it a “live photo blog”.
