ClustrMaps

I just added the cluster maps app. It uses ip address lookup to put a pin on the world map. I hadn’t done anything on the blog in a while and thought it might be a fun diversion. :^)

Another Try

Another try at cleaning the flickr css (ugh) and javascript (sucks).

What I did was to remove the javascript and index the thumbnails directly. I could put the links back in for each thumbnail but I’m thinking not. Rather, I would put a bit-o-javascript to have the thumbs control a larger portrait just to it’s right and a text box with the flickr description just below the thumbs+picture. There would still be a flickr badge linking to the original set.

I need (want) a piece of code where I simply give it the original flickr widget code and it resolves all the image urls and generates the block of code I describe above.

In a second incarnation, I’d simply have a 2 col widget in my sidebar which would like directly to the flickr set.

(all in my spare time, baby!)

Flickr Snickr

I’m looking at adding my snaps to flickr. Here’s a few from my trip to Hyderabad last year. It was a glorious day on the Deccan Plateau.

The flickr code is bloated and if I decide to keep it, it’ll need a css trim. Again, it seems a bit large for the sidebar but perhaps an alternate 2 column set will work.

The LastFM Quilt

I’m on the fence on whether or not to add the LastFM quilt to my blog. It’s a bit large. If I see it in the post for a week and still like it, maybe it goes in the REVERB sidebar. (and, of course, I’ll clean up their css.)
