[Ubuntu-US-CA] Photo sharing options

[seidos]

i think it would be kind of cool if the photos were just in a directory (
ubuntucalifornia.org/photos/date ?), but i realize browsing the photos would
be something of a challenge (afaik).  perhaps someone that is interested in
viewing photos could use wget to just download them to a local folder then
do what they wish?
