Lie to me.. tell me it’s Friday.
Hard to believe it’s only Wednesday - but here at 3AM - my tired brain wants it to be Friday. Tonight’s project consists of using the office line (2.3mbps UPLOAD) to convert CMCentral’s current gallery (see link) to Flickr (another link) - reason for change? Simple, ease of management, storage, and additional features Flickr offers - this is coming at the heels of GMA Week/The Doves - so working to get it all uploaded, still won’t be cataloged as to Where the pictures were taken or really When on some of them, but over time we can add-in additional tags to accomidate.
I have already written a new interface so from CMC the photos will be able to be seen, been tweaking on it for about a month now, was originally a personal project, that sort of evolved when other clients needed a similar gallery solution, so this works - API is pretty easy to use, just started working on the tag search tonight, promising results, though I do want to look at caching results in the database so we can take some load off Flickr when folks search for common tags like “AudioA” (of which I need to re-apply to Audio’s photos) - but its going good - conversion is going smooth, other projects to finish before GMA week are underway, just waiting for some DNS changes to go into place to work on some other elements (of which I can’t speak of … yet).
Lastly Tuesday had a fun lunch with the boys from Awaken (well Mike and Matt - No Andy) - and Jake as well, twas a good lunch - then followed up with sneaking into the library with my camera taking pictures all around
Some posted, can’t post all as new shirt line they are premiering on Friday @ The Gate - but after that I’ll add a few more up to my Flickr.
Anywhoo - crashing out now, can squeeze in about 6hrs of sleep (probably a little less) then must get ready for the Science Fair at the convention center Rosie’s Nephew is in @ the county level, so going to go cheer him on, take some photos etc. Need to find spare batteries for the A510 as I am going to take that as well so his Parents/Rosie can take their own choice pics above and beyond my randomness with the E-500. Sooo thats it - crashin out, thanks for all the prayers, last few weeks have been nuts, and I am sure the next few will be as well as I squeeze in taxes between projects - hours of endless fun
but the server move is nearly planned, so stay tuned if your a “friend” type account, you may not have to move, praying about that - but I am shutting up now - or I’ll talk on that for hours. Sleep beckons.
