Here&#8217;s my excuse: I&#8217;ve played around a bit with Albert Lai&#8217;s cool photo-sharing service Bubbleshare.com, but never integrated a gallery into my blog, and this seemed like a great opportunity (incidentally, Albert will be appearing on a panel at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.meshconference.com\">the conference<\/a> Mark Evans, Stuart MacDonald, Rob Hyndman and Mike McDerment and I are organizing in May). <\/p>\n<p>As Mike Arrington of TechCrunch and others have <a href=\"http:\/\/www.techcrunch.com\/2006\/04\/06\/the-photo-gunners\/\">pointed out<\/a>, there has been a proliferation of photo-sharing sites over the past year or so (including Smugmug.com, whose &#8220;lightbox&#8221; effect is quite cool), but one of the things that makes Bubbleshare a little different from Flickr &#8211; which I also use and love, and have integrated into my other blog at photos.mathewingram.com &#8211; is that it makes it dead simple to create and share albums. It also has some cool Ajaxy interface stuff, including the Mac-like ability to resize photo thumbnails on the fly using a slider.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, enough work talk. Here are the photos &#8211; all of which were taken on a beautiful white-sand beach on Siesta Key, near Sarasota, with an HP Photosmart H817 5 megapixel (and no, this blog isn&#8217;t going to turn into <a href=\"http:\/\/wvs.topleftpixel.com\">a daily dose of imagery<\/a>, which in any case I highly recommend if you enjoy good photography).<\/p>\n<div style=\"width:283px;text-align:center;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:9px;\"><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bubbleshare.com\/album\/24657.f7dcb7be65f\" style=\"font-size:100%;\">This album<\/a> is powered by<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bubbleshare.com\/\" style=\"font-size:100%;\">BubbleShare<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"syndication-links\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You might think that this post isn&#8217;t really work-related, since it involves pictures of my recent vacation in Florida, and therefore it shouldn&#8217;t appear on a blog whose name includes the word &#8220;work&#8221; &#8211; but you would be wrong.
