I just tried Conduit (version 0.3.6 in Ubuntu Hardy) and I don't think it's at all easy. I failed to figure out how to upload (or sync) photos from a local folder to flickr. I did manage to drag rectangles for flickr and a folder to the canvas. It seems roughly comparable to using the gstreamer pipeline editor instead of using Totem. We can't possibly present this as an application for users. Major -1 from me. I don't like assistants (wizards) but I guess that this would be better with an additional assistant, guiding people through the choices somehow. For instance: Page 1: Synchronize to web or to device: [] Website [] Palm Pilot [] Windows CE Device [] Nokia Internet Tablet [] Mobile Phone Page 2 (Website): Choose Folder. Synchronize this folder to: Photos: [] Flickr [] Picasa etc Videos: [] YouTube [] Google Video etc General Files: [] Box.net > == Photos == > FSpot/eye of gnome/nautilus/folder <--> > * Flickr > * Picasa > * SmugMug > * ShutterFly > * Facebook > * iPod Phots > > == Videos == > totem/nautilus/folder --> > * Youtube > * iPod Video > * nxxx > > == Files == > * file/folder <--> file/folder > * Box.net > * S3 support (eta: 1 week) > * Google Documents > > == Notes == > Tomboy Notes <--> > * Backpack Notes > * File/Folder > > == Misc == > * RSS feed enclosures > * Desktop settings (GConf) > > There is also network sync functionality that allows two PCs to sync > peer to peer any of the above listed data. > > I have not gone into the other sync permutations possible, and I am > certain I have left some items out. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.murrayc.com www.openismus.com _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
