A Light in Darkness
Aug. 9th, 2009 03:03 pmRemember how I lost all my photos in a horrible hard drive crash some months ago?
As it turns out, I have a ton of photos in my email that I never once considered. Practically every image I've ever sent as an attachment, or has been sent to me, is in my mailbox. I've been poking around with Spotlight on my Mac, and just generally searching for JPEGs, and I've already come up with a number of gem photos that I forgot existed.
It's going to take me a long time to scour all of my hard drive, but now I know there are a whole bunch of photos floating around in there that I can salvage and organize in my iPhoto; I may very well not have lost as much as I thought I did.
