I came across these photos (via lemonodor) and
little did I realize that there's a whole Flickr community devoted to such
“composite photos”
(well, maybe “community” is too strong a word here—more like a group of
people who tag such work with “composite”).
Reminds me of the one I did.
Another interesting feature of Flickr is the annotations one
can add, although it's done through Flash. Surely, I thought,
there must be a way to do that through CSS and maybe some Javascript.
So last night (well, technically this morning) I played around a bit. Yes there
is a way, I thought. And I need to stop calling myself
Shirly.
It's not
perfect, but as a “proof-of-concept” it's not bad.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
