I’m So In Love with the Facebook Publisher on iPhoto 09!

Or perhaps I should just say that I’m so in love with iPhoto 09. I don’t remember myself enjoying iPhoto so much until today – OK I did enjoy it but wasn’t really like ooo-ahh, that’s all.

When I got my new iMac about a month ago, it was a very busy period for me and all I did with my photo library was transferring, and full stop. When I first launched iPhoto 09, I did notice some of the new features but didn’t bother to look at them much. I even told darl that ‘nah, I’m not going to learn all these, wasting my time nia‘.

A few days back I wanted to publish some photos on my Facebook and remembered about the Facebook publishing feature on iPhoto 09. So I started my experiment and couldn’t get myself away from publishing more photos and albums since then. It was, so easy!

If you are publishing for the first time, you’ll need to set up your Facebook account on iPhoto. I don’t remember exactly how it went but just follow the on-screen instruction will do. And publishing is never easier than this. Go to your Photo Albums, Events, or your Library, and select the photos that you want to publish – perhaps the right way is to create an album first and then publish but I never organise my photos nicely and sometimes I just wanna upload randomly, so this method works better for me.

To select, either command+A (select all), shift+click (to select photos in sequence), or command+click (select photos not in sequence).

After you’ve done selecting, hit the Facebook button at the right bottom of your iPhoto window.

You’ll be asked to make your viewable by Everyone, Friends of Friends, or Only Friends . Select whichever settings you want and hit Publish.

These icons will appear on your sidebar. They are the Facebook albums that you’ve published via iPhoto. The signal icon on the right side means it’s publishing and syncing.

And then you can change the album title, photo title, etc, if you want – which is what I’m doing because obviously I am always too lazy to update my photos, and always leaving the default photo title (eg: DSC00001) in my library. LOL! You may also add photos to the album from time to time. The nice thing is, whatever changes you make on the published albums in iPhoto, it will automatically change on your Facebook. Updating and uploading took me really a very short while, like merely 15 seconds. Cool eh? :D

I have yet to explore Faces and Places in iPhoto (among the new features) but I’m already deeply in love with it. Now the only problem that I’m having is, I don’t have enough nice photos to upload to Facebook. :/

What Have I Been Addicted To…

I received a few invitations to play this Bubble Town game on Facebook not long ago. As usual, I ignored all invitations. >.< I’m sorry if you’ve invited me before, I really appreciate that but seriously, I don’t have much time to play games and I certainly do not want myself to get addicted to any.

But no thanks to my evil darl. He came to me one day when we were supposed to watch a tv programme and said:

“You sure will like this. I’m telling you.”

What the H. I didn’t even wanna look at his computer screen. He continued playing right beside me, with the sound on. I couldn’t help to lean over and have a peek. OK now I know why. If there is a time that I have to choose a game to play no matter how, this arcade type of game will be the one! I mean, come on, I grew up with Mario Brothers (is this arcade???), Tetris, Bubble Bobble, Bomberman, Pacman, and Pinball!

I’ve been trying to control myself not to play too much. Probably a game or two in a day. And look! I’ve got the highest score among my friends! lol.

What Does My Birthday Mean?

While on Facebook, I receive plenty of requests and invitations, which, honestly, I do not know what they are. Sometimes, if I got too bored working, I’ll check out each of them. Otherwise, I’ll just leave it there until one day I finally click ‘Ignore’. lol. I guess Charles is right. Everyone is inviting everyone and that includes me. It happened when I was trying to add the apps. :D

Anyway.

Someone invited me to this app. What Does My Birthday Mean? Although I am kinda over the age of wondering about this, but somehow I’ve got this Ya-Ya feel this morning. :D

Birthday Meaning

You are great in managing everything in your life and this is how you gain respect from others. Because of this quality, you sometimes feel that you are better than the rest. Extreme confidence might lead you to the wrong path. You are a free bird and want to lead your own life. Your Love, You love life is rather different from others’. When you are in love, nothing can stop you. You may often fight with your partner but, soon after that, you will make up in a way that surprises others.

Strengths

While outwardly witty and humorous, in reality they are rather serious, discreet and discerning.

Weaknesses

They make misjudgments and are sometimes proud and haughty.

Best Job

Self-employed. – lol

I find this among the most accurate birthday readings that I’ve read. I’ve invited several friends in my list as requested by the app and I wonder how their readings will be, and whether they are accurate. Mind to tell me if you have read yours? :)

Me on Facebook!

You know, I’ve always had problems with all the social networking thingy on the WWW… OMG I am starting this again. @.@

I’ve got quite a few invitations from friends to join Facebook – verbally or practically. I just didn’t know what it does and all the feedbacks I’ve got is only about ‘IT’S FUN IT’S FUN!’. Yeah but how fun is it? I’ve created too many accounts that never fail to confuse me when I click on my bookmark bar. I know I’ve always wanted a simpler life online. Yeah I’m probably too old to keep myself up with all these yeah-yeah thingy. @.@

Anyway. Charles a.k.a Mr Pandai somehow managed to convince me into joining Facebook. I somehow got the ‘why not’ feel two days ago when we were out. OK la he invited me and I joined and the next thing I knew, I got lost. @.@

Up to date, I am still not sure which one is the main page in my Facebook that I should always refer to – as in I’ll be able to have a glance on all things I want. Charles also mentioned that I could customise any way I want but heck I don’t know how. The next thing I knew, I received plenty of friend requests, which really made me feel ‘wow that’s fast!’.

And then I kept complaining to Charles that I got lost in Facebook and he scolded me. @.@ What the H. I’m sick and I got lost OK!

Anyway… I think I’ve just adopted a (Fluff)Friends and I named her Chip Chip. I think I can show you here (I think la…) but I don’t know how. I think I can do a lot of customisation with it but I don’t know how, and I also don’t know why I should do it. @.@

OK la give me some time lar! !@#$%^&*()

P/S: And and, if you notice, with Facebook in mind, I’ve added this cute little plugin to bookmark or email my post. ;)
