Boring Techy Stuff
May 18, 2004 · 1 minute readThe idea from the photolog came from this helpful site. It’s not completely finished yet, as some of the styling on the individual entries isn’t quite right, but I think it’s okay for the moment. It’s currently set up to display a maximum of seven photos on the main page before shuffling the last one off to parts unknown (there will be a proper index page for all the photos eventually). I’m using a mix of AppleScript and string for publishing; select the picture in iPhoto, then click on the script in NetNewsWire. The AppleScript sends the picture and the thumbnail to the server and constructs the basic HTML for the new blog entry. Exciting stuff.
Oh, and if you're using a fancy newsreader to read this, you can subscribe to the photolog's individual feed (RSS 2.0 at the moment).
I would promise less boring stuff tomorrow, but I'm heading off to London for the STAND meeting, so there's a good chance tomorrow will be full of talk of identity cards. You might get some new pictures, though.
Hmm. Have a song as recompense for making it this far (contains Wilco).
