My first ever Caribbean cruise was a blast. So many memories and so many photos. Having so many pictures made it impossible for me to use Flickr because you need to pay to upload more 200 photos. So I decided to try out different photo sites. After trying out a few sites I finally came to the conclusion that I love Flickr. I just don’t love it enough to pay for it. PicturePush.com is where I ended up uploading all my cruise pictures too. The site has albums and also lets you view your photos via slideshow. Plus it has unlimited storage for free.

So here you are…All my photos from my 9 days in paradise.

A new term popped up all over the internet a few days ago and it is BACN. Now you may be asking yourself… WTF is Bacn?
For all those asking that question I will try and answer it for you. Now we all know what spam emails are. Emails that are unwanted junk mail. Bacn is a step up from spam. When you get an email about a person adding you as a friend on facebook. That would be Bacn. Emails from your favorite software company about an update. That would be Bacn. It’s the end of the month and you get an email with your phone bill. That would be Bacn. Bacn is all over your inbox.
Basically bacn are those emails that you want to receive but don’t have time to read or don’t need to read.

I use Gmail and it is great for handling all the bacn. I have gmail setup to label bacn emails and have it skip my inbox. So my inbox isn’t clogged because of Bacn.
