Blogging. Almost 20 years. So many posts.
I realised just how many when searching for a photo to use in a video. Pretty sure that I took it when at Fullers for a vertical tasting of Vintage Ale. I couldn't remember which year it was. But it shouldn't be too difficult. Should it?
How wrong I was. Despite having some things that I thought were easily searchable, no luck. I even tried just looking through a list of my posts in 2008. Still couldn't find it. Filtering on the label "Fullers" and just trawling through the long list thankfully worked out.
(Just to prove the point I've just spent five minutes trying to find the page again.)
The page didn't have the photo I was after, however. Which is a shame. As searching my photos is a nightmare. At least the older ones. Those from 15 years ago or more. Which, again, is a sign of how long I've been in this game.
I've not got bored of it yet. Despite the stupefyingly dull nature of much of mt material. And the drudge of daily posts.
When will I stop?
2036.
Hoping I'll still be alive then.

Have you tried uploading them all to somewhere google photos, Whichever one i use allows you to search not just on actual tags but actual content in the material. I was trying to find a picture of an actual dog breed within the photos i had taken over the years and typed sausage dog in the search and it found it. SAcary stuff.
ReplyDeleteYou're probably underestimating how many photos I have. It's tens of thousands. (Just checked. it's about 60,000.)
DeleteI've accumulated quite a few photos over the years, but as many of them are stacked in different folders, it's difficult to assess how many I've got, and even more difficult to determine which ones I wish to keep.
ReplyDeleteI have a similar issue, although I don't think I've got anywhere near that number of photos.
