Lost September
Lost September

One of the amazing benefits of being a digital packrat is that you're always running across things from your distant past. Like a RadioSpy v1.1 installer from March 2000 to silly webpages you made in 1998 to your first webcam photos from 1997.

One of the downsides, of course, is that you lose important stuff among all that cutter! Take these photos from September of our beautiful children, for example. Yes, from September. Just a few short months ago. And I lost them among the other 200 gigs of digital junk I've amassed over the years.

I'm a touch over 30 and already losing my mind. This doesn't bode well for the future!

Oh, how very timely! I spotted "When I'm 94" today at the ever entertaining clagnut.com. Will our digital photos be as accessible as print photos when we die?
