June 4 is the anniversary of the protest in Tiananmen Square. Recent news programs made mention of the event and caused me to search for photos I took when visiting Beijing in 1996.
This is not a political post, but a comment on the storage of digital photographs. I generated a great collection of photos during our China trip and I cannot locate the great majority. I am afraid I lost most on some crashed hard drive.
I am rethinking my online storage strategy. I use Flickr to store a subset of images I take (including the one that appears above). A subset is not good enough. You really need two complete sets and two online sets if you want to use one online site for a subset. My present second site is TroveBox.
You cannot go back, but you can try to be more intelligent going forward.
