Update: D’Arcy informed me that “the flickr link was just crawled by google or technorati - no magic connection.” One can dream I guess
I just got a notification of an incoming link from a Flickr photo on my blog. I have to believe this is a new feature, am I right? Probably part [...]

Beyond the eye: A Virtual Art Exhibit via EduBlogs RUM
Published by October 16th, 2008 in art. 2 CommentsMario A. Núñez Molina just posted about the virtual component of a photo art exhibit for an art class at the University of Puerto Rico, Mayaguez. Now, there are a number of remarkable photographs (I’ll reproduce a few below without permission, slap my wrist if this proves bad), and the virtual installment of this [...]
I have been meaning to write about just how easy it was to include the eight Flickr images I used for the In Jim’s Chair post. Tan Tan Noodles’ Flickr Photo Gallery plugin for WordPress (and WPMu) is often associated with the awesome Photo Gallery it can integrate into your WordPress site, see an example [...]
I just found this series of photos on UMW DTLT’s flickr account, took me a bit longer than I would have liked, but well worth it nonetheless. Looks to me like the folks at DTLT had a good time making fun of my unconventional working habits soon after my departure. Philistines! Well, as punishment [...]
Library of Congress Images on Flickr
Published by January 17th, 2008 in Flickr, images and pictures. 0 CommentsImage found on the Library of Congress site here, very Star Warsy in my opinion
This news is making the rounds, but it is really cool to see 3,000 Library of Congress images on Flickr. The logic by which they are approaching this project is similar to the UMW Centennial images we have made [...]
The Rich Comments! plugin is by no means essential, and the code is still in its infancy. But its one of those plugins that I dig because it is ajaxy, unneccessary, and maybe even irrational given that we still don’t have a good way in WordPress, and the blogosphere more generally, to keep track [...]

As 2007 comes to a close, the University of Mary Washington’s centennial year is set to begin. There has been much preparation for the centennial festivities, and the occasion has in many ways helped the university to focus on the importance of a digital memory for the institution more [...]

I’m not sure what to think about the new Yahoo! Shortcuts plugin that WordPress folks are blogging about. It seems to be a joint venture between WordPress and Yahoo! that scans your posts to recommend and create shortcut links to sites, creative commons Flickr photos, maps, news, etc. What are these [...]
Nathan’s just one of many recently converted disciples, this could be you!
And another disciple in Barbara, who seems to have a shrine going…
Thanks for playing along with my shameless self-promotion!
