Thanks for the mention Gary.

I’d ditto Squid’s advice – and then we upload to flickr on the “private” setting. This can be vital for insurance (if we ever decide to take out an insurance policy).

I’m going to try and make use of that OpenDNS tip too.

GREAT ADVICE! )

#2 If a scanner is not available (which is probably hard to find around the world), take a photo and upload it.

Excellent tips for geeking on the road – particularly the google reader and wifi detector (for those of us with laptops etc).Thanks!

For bookmarking, i recommend Google Bookmarks. Install the Google toolbar with bookmarks or access online.

But these are really great ideas especially #2

Thanks,

Excellent idea on #2. I’ve been itching to waste the money on one of those “receipt scanners” you see in the Skymall catalogs.

“YouÃ¢â‚¬â„¢d never know it if you sent me an email because all my replies are from my main address.”

GMailers don’t seem to know it, but I get emails constantly that are “From [traveler@gmail.com] ON BEHALF OF [traveler@secretdomain.com]“. My editor seemed shocked when I finally asked which of her four email addresses would reach her fastest.

Flickr account for uploading photos helps…

Youtube account for uploading vid touches on a similar theme…

I found del.icio.us dot com great for managing bookmarks from independent locations…

You’ll also want a pair ‘o headphones for that skype account.
