Flickr Album

I just installed the Flickr Photo Album plugin for Wordpress, and I’m pretty impressed so far.

I used to post Flickr images by cut-n-pasting a text snippet I had stored as a Wordpress note and replacing the relevant links with those of the photo I wanted to post. It works, but it’s kinda clunky and slow to do. With Flickr Photo Album you get a bar on the Write Post screen displaying your latest Flickr images, inserting the proper HTML with just two clicks — one to select the photo, another to select the size of the image you want to post. Perfect!

But wait, there’s more! You also get an integrated Flickr photo album (hence the name) — mine is located here. It looks kinda boring, but I’ll fiddle with the design of it later.

Definitely going to support this plugin in Kestrel.

In the other news, allergy season has started. Yay.

Hey, Warren!

Stop doing that, Warren. It’s wide open for abuse, such as me making all your readers who read via your RSS feed see this.

What I’m talking about is publishing all your Technorati occurences and Flickr comments in your article feed. Reading your own stuff? I love it. That’s what I want. Reading what every boring entity on the planet writes about you? In French? No thanks, not interested. I don’t speak French.

I suppose I could have e-mailed Warren about this instead, but where’s the fun in that? Feel free to call me a dick in the comments.
