Charlie: Our last hotel had malfunctioning wifi and was very slow. It was the weekend so they couldn’t get it fixed. But Dropbox came through again and managed to upload our media.
Kudos to the Dropbox engineers. The app handles flakey connections beautifully. I have done that kind of programming on an iPhone, not nearly as well as they have done, and I know how hard it is to get right and what extensive testing is required.
Since we switched to Dropbox I decided to try the higher resolution video mode on my phone, from 640 by 480 to 1920 by 1024. It takes a lot longer to upload but it will be nice to have it. So the videos will also take a lot longer to stream when you view them.
I am also going to upload all the previous videos to Dropbox since it seems to handle them well.
