Ed Gillett’s Blog

A gallery of stuff being destroyed, at the exact moment they ceased to be thanks to the wonders of fast photography

Timing is Everything

Whilst I’ve been playing around with trying to get the CSS working attempting to blog photos from Flickr, I came across an awesome lil WordPress plugin called FAlbum. This uses the Flickr API to show you all the images from your Flickr account, including all the sets, tags and descriptions. You don’t get the community comments etc, but you could go straight through to Flickr if you want to see that. Anywho – fun to play with!

My linked photos are here, but you can just Click on the Photo link on the right hand side of this page!

Freddy Teddy Is Home!!
Originally uploaded by EdGillett

At long last, Freddy Teddy has returned home, safe and sound. True to their word, the TeddyNappers had not harmed Freddy and delivered him back home safe and sound tonight.

I came home to find him in a bag in my hallway (they had keys apparently), wrapped in bubble wrap (including a bubble wrap hat).

No indication as to his whereabouts over the past 5 months over the photos emailed across thus far. Maybe they’ll blog …

Seems I posted quite a few of the old photos on this site directly to Blogger, and you can’t access those externally. Will migrate all the old photos across to Flickr and reindex the old blog posts soon. Cos I know you all enjoy reading the old stuff.

I also promise to correctly categorise all the old posts. Because I’m boring.

Very cool – sketch something, pick colours and this experimental tool will return you all the photos from flickr which it thinks match your entry. Very interesting results – clever stuff.

I like Flickr Lots of people all over the globe having fun with it!

Yes, my teddy bear is still missing, and being forced to travel around with the TeddyNappers against his will. His return is promised shortly. We’ll just have to wait and see.

I wonder if this is one of Freddy’s drinking buddies whilst he’s away on his travels?

From the wonderful photographer that is awfulsara on flickr.
