aloi.org

It’s been a long time, but I’ve picked FlickSavr up again and am working on a new release.  I’ve taken everyones comments and built in some more user control.  I’ve also changed the screensaver to be a little more “Leopard” like.  I started with some of Apple’s code, hacked it up a bit, and am using the same back end parser.  I’d like to re-write the parser in Ruby (currently it’s PHP).  Look for more updates soon…  - Chris

It’s been about a month since my last update to the FlickrSavr application and since I last posted. I’ve been working on cosmetic changes to Aloi.Org (including an upgrade to WP-2.0) and also changing hosting providers (due to speed). If you notice Aloi.Org is redirecting to ChrisAloi.com - It’s only temporary, once the DNS changes propagate all will be normal again. I’ve also started playing with Apple’s new iLife suite - iPhoto has really come along way, we now have the ability to subscribe to a “PhotoCast” or “Stream” - the PhotoCast allows subscriptons to Flickr streams which is really nice.

I’ve noticed some development in Flickr apps for the Mac OS as well - “Tickr” is a great Flickr Ticker that streams photos along your desktop.

I hope to have more updates to FlickrSavr in the near future, thanks again for all the support.
