Annoying, but a fact of weblife!

I’m afraid quite a few links to Google+, Picasaweb and Everytrail in older posts may not be live anymore. I will over time update and refresh the links with Content from material hosted on this site.

Your bank probably has […]
How do you delete photos from Google Photos? April 7, 2021
Seems a pretty easy question to ask. Should be a relatively easy question to answer. Wrong! It’s a minefield of complication and you can quite easily find yourself deleting images from places you don’t want them to be deleted from. In this article I’m not going to even attempt to enter the minefield but after […]
Changes to Google Storage April 7, 2021
If you’ve got a Google account – you use Google Photos, Google Drive (and the Google Docs suite) or Gmail – you’ll probably have received an email telling you about the changes that Google are making to the way it calculates how much of the 15Gb of storage the company allocates to you has been […]
