Fight the Good Fight

The Vancouver Blogger Wars continue. Currently, Duane is still coming up just behind. Let’s go people, let’s see some linkage.

May the Force be with you, Duane!.

PicLens – Fullscreen Image Browser

Cooliris has created a really interesting image viewer add-on for your browser.  PicLens is a full-screen viewer for multiple images, whether in slide-show format or in a “wall” of images that can be clicked, dragged, zoomed, etc.:


PicLens in IE7

It is available for various browsers, including IE, Firefox and Safari.  I have tried the IE and Firefox ones and I can say that the IE one is a disappointment when compared to the Firefox add-on.  IE only offers a 2D view and a slideshow, while the Firefox version really shows off the wall function (Flickr credit to t-dot-s-dot):

Download and install this add-on and go visit your favourite Flickr page, a Google Image search result, and more.  They even have a WordPress plugin so that it can be incorporated into a personal site as well.

New site

I’ve just created a new site called pocophotos.com. The idea with this site is to be a place (yet another) to view pictures about the Poco area. Right now John and I will be the main contributors, but I hope to grow that.

Honestly, more of an exercise than a site but hey if you do an exercise and end up with a site, so be it ;).
