Interesting to hear all of this
This is really and interesting thread to read for us. RTA has been development of a new photo/roadtrip journal sharing site for a couple of years now. We hope to be in Beta by November or so and I really hope that all of you who don't now share your images online will be intrigued enough to give it a shot.
It is interesting to reflect about what galaxie50059 says about that element of taking photos on roadtrips to share with friends and family -- because even though Megan and I are "professional roadtrippers" and take hundreds of images every single month we rarely (maybe never) share them with friends. We do, of course, use them to document the road trips that we take on behalf of RTA and our other writing clients. I used to keep extensive photo albums of the trips I have taken and frame and hang many of the photos I have shot over the years. But since the wildfire in 1993 and our time of life lived on a roll -- you would be hard pressed to find any of my photos on the walls of either my office or my home. All that said, we decided to undertake the hugely costly process of creating "a better mousetrap" of a photo and journal sharing site so that those who wish to share roadtrip memories have a place to do that. I also find that my own "...mass storage device consist(ing) of about 100,000,000,000 neurons..." so aptly described by AZBuck doesn't work nearly as well I would prefer so we will have to see what our programmers come up with.
Thanks for sharing all of these ideas.
