Hi everyone, Yesterday I created a news digest of blogs covering this week's CTCNet conference. Later that same day, Marnie Webb posted a blog entry wondering if I'd do the same for users of the Flickr photo portal. Here's your answer, Marnie. :-)
I've now added a Flickr photo gallery to the digest, which you can see here: http://www.digitaldivide.net/articles/view.php?ArticleID=447 As a test I've uploaded two pics from last year's conference, one of Max Gail and the other of Shireen Mitchell. At the time of writing this, Max's picture was displaying just fine, though Shireen's pic hasn't come through yet. Hopefully it'll appear soon. The photo stream uses the same principle as the blog digest: I'm using RSSDigest to create the digest, but instead of using Technorati to create the necessary RSS feed, I'm using an RSS feed from Flickr showing all photos that have been tagged with the word CTCNet. RSSDigest then takes the feed and converts it into a java script that's viewable on any Web page. For those of you who still don't know what RSS is, I beg you to read my essay What's RSS and Why Should I Care About It? http://www.digitaldivide.net/articles/view.php?ArticleID=68 Hopefully that will shed light on why RSS is such a killer, killer app... -andy -- ----------------------------------- Andy Carvin Program Director EDC Center for Media & Community acarvin @ edc . org http://www.digitaldivide.net http://www.tsunami-info.org Blog: http://www.andycarvin.com ----------------------------------- _______________________________________________ DIGITALDIVIDE mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.edc.org/mailman/listinfo/digitaldivide To unsubscribe, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word UNSUBSCRIBE in the body of the message.
