The Cookout

There used to be a time when the family would have family pictures printed and in a book. How are families taking pictures and making this part of history sharable for their family? Is there a central place for storing and sharing family photos or our history?

It's a very dangerous thing to do these days. Any kind of digital picture isn't something that you should just share with anyone.

You mentioned printed pictures but the picture quality degrades over time but it's still a viable option for your memories. Are there still places to get them developed?

This thread just reminds me of Carlin

Once a year I get family books made of all our best memories. You can get them done made cheaply at Walgreens.

I was wondering the same thing.

Please be smart and just get them developed. We are in too deep to be foolish. No Facebook. No Instagram.

A post like this is a treasure trove:

Post yourself doing something outdoors.

You don’t have to be in the picture but post yourself doing something outdoors. Thread is ongoing and your post has to be from the last 90 days. Follow my format. What: Hiking, 1.5Mi Difficulty: Moderate Where: Forrestal Reserve in...

I respect everyone's decision but does the benefit even comes close to what you get in the end from sharing everything with the world? The choice is yours.

When you have GPS enabled you can pull that data, I use it to catch people lying.

There's only two ways my picture might be online today: a relative or friend might have uploaded a picture or I'm in the background of a stranger's picture. I upload nothing.
