2007 in pictures

I was attempting to automate the process ala-fd’s Flickr toys, what with the Flickr API’s fantastic use of JSON responses (no need for server-side nor cross-site xHTTP requests). Alas, my days were packed. But I’m getting the hang of it. I’m relearning JavaScript along the way (I could actually rebuild a DOM tree from the JSON response, cool). One thing that would have made my coding easier: an API wrapper for JavaScript.

Anyway, enjoy.

Kudos to Naraoya and ATIS547 for the borrowed pics.

I’m building up a review of 2007, using Flickr photos. Nothing spectacular — just a retrospective tool for me. We have had many blessings this year, and what better way to reminisce than through pictures. For now, I’m collecting photos from various sources, one of which is provided by Flickr:

Sort of.

Just stumbled upon this while reviewing my Flickr account: a university lecturer in Australia used my (and a couple of other Flickr members’) mugshot in the cover for her compilation of readings. How cool is that?

Okay, so this is very ancient, but still, it’s a great ego boost. Not! But it’s nice, really.
