today’s burning question

as you can see, I’ve been dedicating the last couple posts to really important topics. in the interests in maintaining the level of intelligence around here, I need your help in answering a question that’s been bugging me since Jen brought it up: {democracy:3} Thanks for your input.

flickr for newbies

I use flickr to host pretty much all of my recent photos*. It’s decently priced, feature-rich, and has a great community, with people from all over the place interacting, encouraging, and helping each other out.
