I had planned on integrating Gallery 2 into this blog, using the WordPress Gallery Plugin, but I had some difficulties installing Gallery2. There is a bug in PHP’s __FILE__ variable when used on FreeBSD, in my environment. Anyways it turned out well because I discovered Plogger, which I like better now anyways.
So I integrated Plogger with WordPress, and it now appears embedded in my Photos page. In addition, I setup a Feedburner feed and called it a Photocast, since it appears to work as such in iPhoto fairly well. Any RSS feed would probably work this way, but some blogger somewhere had recommended it, so I thought I’d give it a try. Maybe it will save me some bandwidth too.
I may code my own photocast add-on to Plogger, since I know PHP fairly well and there seems to be adequate information on the web as to the hacks that Apple made to RSS for this feature. For now though, my Mac-using friends and family can enjoy automatic photo updates via the Feedburner link.
