Photo Portfolio

Over the bridge at the Cornell Plantations.

For a while now I've been looking for an online solution to showcase some of the better photos I've taken. I'm using Flickr as a place to share my photos, using "sets" more like event albums, and I wanted a way to separate my favorites from the rest. I had originally created a separate set called [[ Favorites of Mine ]] to list them, but it didn't work too well, I think.

The solution I came up with is Tumblr, mainly because I tried several times to find a purpose for it and couldn't. I created a new account and figured it out. I call it k.Cheng Photo Portfolio, and it'll have just my better photos. Flickr for everything else (candids, vacations, photo of the day). Check it out.

(Sadly, there's no built-in way to post to Tumblr from Flickr.)

What's up with Tumblelogs?

For someone who made the switch to an actual blog, is having a tumblelog (via Tumblr) redundant? It was fun as it lasted, as they say.

I use this blog to post personal thoughts and ideas, I use Twitter (@USuMBS) to share daily musings, and I use Engineerography Blog to write about a more topical and public matter. I even use Flickr to organize and share my personal photos. (I have a Picasa Gallery that is dead and a MobileMe Gallery that I am not sure how I should use it. And I don't do videos [yet].)

Then, I aggregate everything to Facebook. I think that's being plenty virtually social. But is there anything else that I should jump on the bandwagon for? I may just give up on finding a niche for my tumblelog. Does anyone actually read it? Hmm.
