  • How to get your Flickr photos to show up in your Facebook profile

    [Updated 2/13/12 with current directions.]

    So many of my Facebook / Flickr friends ask me this question, I’m going to blog the answer for the good of whoever wants to know. It’s easy, actually; Flickr will link to your Facebook account and automatically post your latest uploads to your FB profile.

    Just go to your Flick Account Settings and click on the Sharing & Extending tab. See at the bottom of the page? Where you see “Share Flickr photos to other sites,” click “edit” to the right of “Facebook.” If you haven’t connected Flickr to Facebook, click the Connect button. Check “Automatically share your public Flickr uploads anywhere your Facebook updates are shown.” After editing, Facebook should show “Activity Updates: ON.” Link your accounts to share your Flickr updates on Facebook.” When you upload new photos to Flickr, they will automatically be posted to your Facebook profile.

    So, there you have it. That’s how to link your Flickr account to your Facebook account and have your Flickr photos show up in your Facebook profile.

  • Interpreted my first Shakespeare play!

    A lot has happened since I last wrote a blog post, but this post is about how I interpreted my first Shakespeare play.

    I had been preparing to interpret The Merchant of Venice for the Southwest Shakespeare Company at the Mesa Arts Center since early March, but after I presented my workshop at the Arizona RID State Conference at the end of March, I got to work on Merchant in ernest.

    My co-interpreter, Sandra Solomon, who had already interpreted four shows for SW Shakespeare Co., met with me several times to rehearse interpreting the show. We corresponded with Missy Keast, our ASL Producer, via e-mail and met with her over videoconference to show her some of our interpreting and get her feedback, which was very beneficial. (Sandra came to my house and we sat together in front of my iMac with built-in iSight camera and used iChat to connect to Missy in Hawaii, since she also has a Mac with built in iSight and iChat. I only wish we’d been able to do this more than once.)

    In addition to meeting a few times at each other’s homes to discuss the play and rehearse, (more…)

  • After my first conference workshop

    I presented my workshop "Knowing What They’re Going to Say Before They Say It: Using Genre Recognition to Improve Your Predictive Skills" at the Arizona RID (Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf) State Conference on Saturday, March 28, 2009 from 1-4:30 PM. It was the first time I’d ever presented at a state conference, and they put me in the smallest meeting room (the Palo Verde room) at the Hilton Airport Hotel in Phoenix, Arizona.

    Can you believe that a total of 27 attendees filled this room beyond capacity? I was astounded at the turnout. I was too busy during my workshop to even think about taking pictures, but as I was leaving the space after packing up all my things, I paused to say a prayer of thanks; then I took this photo to commemorate the moment. I am hopeful to teach workshops at other conferences throughout the rest of my life. It may sound corny, (more…)
