On Not Zooming

Oh my gosh! Yes, zooomr has promise, but it is sooo cumbersome to use, especially the geotagging. I cannot even believe how frustrating it is both to figure out and to manually utilize. MAYBE it will all come together when GPS cameras hit their stride, but for now it is truly AWFUL. Unitl then, flickr is still king. Maybe the young developer is the next Steve Jobs, but I'm not sure.

It made me look again at GPS cameras, but as of this writing the cheapest one is around USD 1,200! The 'better' ones are nearly $5,000. Possibly I could afford the low end if I sell my current camera, my video iPod, the old Handspring PDA, AND my Panasonic digital video camera. Yikes!
