Kevin Von Qualen how many of you use flickr? with such small size limits on uploading, why not a blog or a better pay service? I find gallery difficult too.

Mel Barnes: I apologize...I had a memory lapse! It's $24.95 for a year. I just had a moment to check. But I figure 2.00 a month is worth it.

Vanessa Alvarado We're busy & natural multitaskers. I've never tried Audio Books, but it would allow "reading" while working, driving, etc. Anyone tried it?

Meghan Deaver: Read it on a plane, was bawling by the end (poor guy next to me didn't know what to do) but it was fabulous. Heard the movie isn't as good.

Mel Barnes: I listened the audiobook on a trip recently and LOVED IT! Don't want to see the movie though. Previews make it look completely different.
