I'm not sure whether to make them public or not to be honest. I've
made some decisions about her desktop which people might disagree
with. For example I've installed Picasa as the photo manager rather
than F-Spot, and Thunderbird as the mail client and Chromium instead
of Firefox as the default browser.

If I do make them public they'll likely not be on
screencasts.ubuntu.com but on some other site, maybe my blog, I don't
know yet.

I removed the whole digital camera issue by telling Mum to just put
the memory card in the slot, and Picasa just automatically imports the
photos for her. No faff.

I installed dropbox and signed her up for it. I then made a folder
which is shared between me and her. So any screencasts I put in the
folder will magically appear on her machine next time she goes online.

Cheers,
