+ ===== Dropbox as picture share service =====
+ 
+ Any file saved to ''~/Pictures/Screenshots'' gets renamed based on timestamp and moved to ''~/Dropbox/Public'' folder.
+ 
+ When the move is done, URL for the image is copied to clipboard and image viewer is opened so you can see your image before you paste the url to IM, e-mail, etc...
+ 
+ Requirements: [[https://www.dropbox.com/install?os=lnx|dropboxd]] running, [[http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/libnotify/0.7/|libnotify]], [[https://github.com/rvoicilas/inotify-tools/wiki|inotify-tools]]
+ 
+ You should start the script at startup of your X session.
+ 
+ <code bash ~/.local/bin/dropbox-watch.sh>
+ #!/bin/sh
+ # A script that watches ~/Pictures/Screenshots dir, and any new file is added there, it
+ # is renamed so it would contain filename modify timestamp (uses safe
+ # characters not to require urlencode) and moved to dropbox dir. Additionally
+ # dropbox url is copied to clipboard and image viewer is opened to show that
+ # screenshot.
