    When I switched to Firefox as a web browser, one of the add-ons for a toolbar was a feature called “Stumble Upon”. It takes the most popular sites based on visits and separates them into categories (I mostly use music and photography, but all kinds of subjects are available). It is a fantastic way to surf without feeling you’re wasting time with so-so sites.

    It is now available for Internet Explorer, so I thought it was worth visiting. Happy hunting!

    Tom,

    You into photography? I was actually a Photography major in college. Didn’t do much good cause I am still making countertops but it was sure fun.

    Andy,
    I bought a Nikon F34 back in ’84 (the only underware modeling for you then was Huggies, I suppose), it was about as good as an amateur camera could get. I swore I’d never go digital. Then I bought a Sony DSC for the shop. ’nuff said.

    A pro photog friend uses a Nikon digital TTL and takes very good shots, I must say.

    The stumble upon toolbar will take you to some awesome sites for photography. One of the perennials is a guy who shoots stormy skies. Beautiful.

    I’m 36, I just look like I am still in High School. Just went through puberty last year. They call me a “Late Bloomer”.

    What do you usually shoot?

    Hah! Nowadays? Countertops.

    For pleasure I usually shoot the family pics. I always took decent shots, but I’m far from great.

    That’s it no accountants? Do we even want to know what it was you were shooting in the past ?

    Rueben, in the past I shot mostly boating, fishing, shoreline stuff. I’m a boater. Accountants used to be in my crosshairs, but I never “clicked”. But seriously, I was not much of a photographer.

    Its been a while for me taking photos, but in High school we got to develop our own Black and white photos. Now that was cool. So do you guys prefer Black and white or color?

    Black and White, but it is much harder to get a nice picture with B&W.

    Yeah, but when you get it right what a awsome picture does it make.

    Photography has always been a hobby of mine. To me, Black and White are
    truly awesome under the right settings. We used to spend hours in the
    darkroom printing B&W Check the gallery later, I’ll post a few of
    my favorites later. Andy, you look young because you kept your hand in
    the fixer too long. .
