Photo editing update...

Thanks to everyone who commented on my request for advice about photo editing software.

This morning, I realised that my laptop has Corel Paint Shop Pro on it - it was pre-installed (although appears neither on the desktop nor in the Start Menu Programmes list!).

Anyhow, it does everything I want, seems pretty simple, and I have happily been using it for the last couple of hours!

The Weird - and possibly not so wonderful - Internet

I was just reading Donald Clark on Google’s blog search, and since I haven’t used it before, I thought I’d give it a go. So I go to Google, find the Google blog search option (located on the “more” menu), and, naturally, search for “rhythmaning”.

Come one, what else would I look for?

Needless to say, it found this journal (though I can’t work out why it picked the couple of posts it did – maybe they only index every few days or so).

But I also found an adult blog had linked to my journal. This struck me as very, very strange. The post they were quoting was about art exhibitions during the Edinburgh Festival, and the owner of the blog must have searched on “erotic art” or similar – one of the exhibitions was “Naked Portraits”, and I had commented on the erotic (and otherwise) nature of the pictures and the concept.

It is very odd, and not altogether pleasing, to have been quoted by an adult site; the interweb is a very strange place indeed.
