This site began as a place to share vacation photos with family and friends. Then, I added the now defunct webcam for a graduate school project. The project was to use the web to revolutionize the way something is done - I chose "monitoring your pets while you're away" - still working on the remote control litter box "scoop a poop and win a prize" idea. It's pretty cool to look back and see how the site has evolved over the past several years.

The site then snowballed out of control as Jennifer's geeky hobby. So why whywework? Well 1) Most everything else was already taken, 2) It's catchy and easy to remember, and 3) We both work long hours in challenging jobs so traveling is pretty much...why we work.

We can update the site from any internet connection (internet cafe, mobile phone with email, you name it). It's now a part of every day on vacation and we've gotten by fairly well in foreign lands pantomining "typing on a keyboard" and repeatedly saying "internet?".

Most of the pictures on this site were taken with some form of Nikon - we've had a variety of Nikon Coolpix Cameras, a Nikon D70, Nikon D70s, and now a Nikon D80 and a D300. We also shoot a lot with our cameraphones. It's a great memory aid (wine labels or restaurant signs), and though not the best quality it sometimes produces a cool painterly effect.

If you have any questions, just drop us an e-mail.
