Now 'beta'
Upgraded delimages to avoid hitting del.icio.us as they banned my IP :(
This was because RSS feeds were hotlinked to pages, so that when you loaded a page, it would attempt to refresh a cache of an RSS feed if the page hadn’t been hit within 30 minutes.
Although this sounds fairly reasonable, it doesn’t work for the folks over at del.icio.us – so now images are only downloaded from the two main del.icio.us image feeds, and cached. Requests for tagged images or user’s images are just filtered from the main cache.
This also means that pages load faster, yay.
However not as many images may be presented, boo :(
But before I had to shut them off completely, and now they are up again, yay!
I’m lazy so I decided to just rewrite the whole script, here is the new source.
Service Outage
we had a service outage tonight—ran out of the disk space, oops!
turns out that apache logs get big quickly when you are doing a lot of ajax requests
mysql doestn’ appreciate not having any disk space, so table done got corrupted
table is repaired, service is up again, yay….
Service Bulletin
Del.icio.us isn’t servicing tag join requests – delimages can’t work without this. Please stand by until del.icio.us fixes their tag service.
LiveMarks is firing on all cylinders again, yay
OK del.icio.us is back up and everything is working again – LiveMarks, delimages, priv.at, even BozPages tag search.
I’ve added in redundant social bookmarking services so LiveMarks isn’t so much at the mercy of del.icio.us. Now if you bookmark something on del.irio.us or any of the other social-bookmarking sites that are wise enough to offer a feed of their bookmarks, it will scroll by just like the del.icio.us bookmarks.
Why tags aren't working
Del.icio.us currently isn’t servicing request for multiple tags, such as system:filetype:jpg+cat
this means that delimages can’t currently service requests for image tags.
users and the main index still work though. hopefully del.icio.us will be back up soon.
Front Page RSS feed now available
Fixed bug on the front page – the rss link was messed up, it should have been ?format=rss instead of &format=rss. All fixed.
How delimages works
Delimages is a very simple php script that takes in the del.icio.us rss feeds for images, system:filetype:jpg, system:filetype:png, mixes them together, removes dupes, and sorts by time.
