I am looking to share some photos and get a blog online and I can't decide what the best way to do this would be. I appolagize for the long post but I am trying to be thorough in giving you my thinking my thinking. I'll try to be organized to make up for it.
Background:
Next year I am going to be studying abroad in Europe for two semesters and would like to tell people back home in the states how things are going. I have minimal html/webpage experience, limited time to learn stuff and mess around with it and and money is tight. I have also never done any blogging before and am very unlikely to make good use of it.
Usage/what I am looking for:
1)A simple blog to tell family and friends (that includes you guys if you want) how things are going and about any adventures I might have.
2)Host a couple hundred pictures, organized in albums, for people to look at and have them available to download at full resolution, taken with a 5mp camera. My mom is big on pictures so this is mostly for her, she also likes to print them which is why they need to be full rez.
3) Easy to navigate. The audience for this will be several computer illiterite people and some on 56k modems so posted pictures need to be thumbnails with links to the originals.
4) Easy to deploy. I have a full coursload at school, a job and something resembling a social life so I I don't have hours to update it (initial settup can be slow as I don't need it up an running for a month or two).
5) CHEAP, in fact free unless I think there is no possible other way.
My options: These are the possiblities that I have been considering.
1) The ultimate solution would be something like fotki.com as it has photo hosting/printing/linking and a journal all on one website with an easy interface. However it costs $50 a year and that is more than I can afford.
2)Get things from separate places. Get a blog like blogger (http://www.blogger.com) and find someplace to host pictures, maybe one of those online printing places like Snapfish so that I get unlimited free storage.
3) Make my own website. Here I have two sub options.
a) I have 100Mb of non scriptable webspace on a webdav server through my university that I could use. Picture storage would be limited but that might be ok.
b) I have a Digital Audio G4 tower running Panther that I currently use as a printserver. I could easily demilitarize it on our router and use something like no-ip to access it. Pros being unlimited completely customizeable space, cons being it is more work and I will not have physical access to it when over seas so if something goes wrong it will be vary hard to fix because I would have to talk one of my family trough fixing it.
The ability to download in full rez is probably the least important as I can find other ways of getting those to my mom.
So, what would you do in my situation, remember time and money are the deciding factors here, don't have much of either. Any feedback is greatly appriciated.

I think I made an error yesterday by trying to charge the iPad with a 3rd party connector. It charged fine, and this morning I awoke to a 100% charged battery as usual.
Out of curiosity, why did you use a third party charger? I've done it a few times with other devices, but it's always been with quality, branded chargers (like charging my Kindle with my BlackBerry's charger), but I wouldn't dare do that with my iPad unless I knew it was top quality since so many of those third party chargers, like third party batteries, can damage your equipment.
By the way, I think using a third party charger may have voided your warranty anyway. At least on some devices I'm pretty sure it does.

Do other hard drives (even your internal hard drive) show up on your desktop?
Yes, the MBPro drive works, and I have another ext. drive and that runs as well.

But, how did the iPod fit perfectly on an iPhone 4 case?
It didn't, there's no way it would be a good fit.

Using passmark, since I just happened to have a very recent saved file.
Pre 2.1/Post 2.1
CPU Mark: 7658.1/7859.7
2D Mark: 786.9/797.2
3D Mark: 1205.2/1198.5
Memory Mark: 1227.3/1330.7
Disk Mark: 980.9/704.5
Only interesting result was the Disk Mark. I haven't changed any drivers, clocks or windows updates from 1 day to the next, so I'm not sure what this sharp in disk could be attributed too.
Broken Down
Pre2.1/Post2.1
Disk - Sequential Read: 80.0/74.8
Disk - Sequential Write: 136.7/82.7
Disk - Random Seek RW: 54.5/37.3
I have a Corsair SSD 128.
I'm going to do a full power cycle and repeat some of these tests just to make sure it's not my fault somehow.

Best serial and terminal emulator available on the Mac. This was my one holdout from the PC world for the longest time
I just found a student pricing form buried on the site for a $20 educational license here (http://www.vandyke.com/pricing/educational/applications/student.html). Will hatve to shoo them an email.
Thanks for all the replies, Guess I just need to create a basic template with ssh access enabled and a dhcp pool to enable direct ssh access. I'll have to try cu now that I have my new mac. thanks for the tip Andrew

The iMac is getting ready to be refreshed. Should be sandy bridge processors. The mini will follow, since it uses the same parts, not long after the iMac. Your decision will depend on what your going to use it for.

Technically it should. AFAIK, you should be able to put any speed DDR RAM into a PC and it will clock it down to the necessary speed.
Yeah, it should. And your statement isn't QUITE correct. There was PC1600. (Slower than PC2100,) but it was really unusual. By the time DDR became mainstream, PC2100 was the norm.

Check out the mStand (http://www.raindesigninc.com/mstand.html). It's really beautiful and matches the Alum Macbook.
I also have the mStand and it's worked great for me. my mbp is at a comfortable viewing angle and I can use it with or without my wireless mouse and keyboard. plus it is very aesthetically pleasing :) I Highly Recommend it!
ALSO, I tried the Griffin Elevator and ended up returning it the next day because my mbp was slipping off the stand when i tried to use it. just something to keep in mind.

I'll post it elsewhere when I get home. I have seen a number of very similar problems that seem to stem from bad wu's so I'll keep trying. It would be my luck though to have the first wu be bad making me think my set up isn't right.
yeah. let us know if you get it to work. hopefully your setup isn't bad.

This can be fixed by loosening the bottom screws (requires a special tool) and retightening in the right order. If everything else on it seems good then I would ask them to do this. If there are other problems than an exchange might be better.

Let's see.
5-Row keyboard it lets you change the layout and add numbers on top of the regular one.
SBSettings
WinterBoard
RetinaPad
MultiFlow
SwitcherMod
CyDelete
IFile
PkgBackup
All those make my iPad so much better.

I've been looking for a clear TAM for a while now, I'm not entirely sure that it exists, but whatever.
30 minutes left @ $202. I might have to pull the trigger :O
There was a complete Clear TAM at one time. :)

All I know is there are two 17-inch ACDs one with a gray translucent apple logo and one with a silver shiny apple logo. Performance\Quaility is the same.

It also doesn't need air because it just sits at the bottom of the water filled bucket and floats/crawls around.
