Backing up sucks

Since running out of hard disk space, I've been slogging through 30GB of photographs making a backup set of DVDs so that I can clear out some old photos to make way for the new. The actual burning to DVD doesn't take that long; the real time sucker is creating the index. My rationale is that a stack of DVDs that I can't index is of limited use, so I go through every folder (clustered by upload) and write a set of keywords for the photos in that folder.

Maybe I'll be done by Christmas. 2007.

I'll take your renewed interest in blogging, and your image back-up plan as a good sign we'll see more stuff from you more often...
