Then its just a matter of including that one egg in a buildout and installing it and you get everything downloaded and installed. and it will work no matter what your own buildout regime is. Of course this relies on a perfect world where all dependencies are eggs. Wouldn’t it be better to create a “bundle egg” with dependencies to the recommended products?

I'm in Portland, OR, a city of books, and I find the waiting list at the public library is often quite long. I know there are people 0 maybe even just a couple of blocks away - who have books I am looking for. If this tool was combined with some basic geolocation data so I could actually build new relationships through books, that would be awesome. Any idea of any other implementations of this anywhere else? I’ve spent the last couple of months thinking through this very problem and am really excited to see someone moving forward with it.

]]> Comment on How to make emergency glasses by David Fisher http://nateaune.com/2007/12/29/how-to-make-emergency-glasses/#comment-27025 David Fisher Thu, 07 Feb 2008 09:15:53 +0000 http://nateaune.com/2007/12/29/how-to-make-emergency-glasses/#comment-27025 Squinting can work as well. You're simply going for a tighter aperture for hopes that there will be an increased depth of field in which all objects will be equally in focus. On a camera, this is normally close to f/11 or f/16 depending on the focal length. The downside being at this aperture that there's very little light coming in. More "open" apertures like f/1.0 will only have a tiny tiny distance range that is in focus, but it lets a ton of light in. Basically, this doesn't work well in the dark, but works great to read a streetsign on a sunny day. Fun stuff. I wonder what would happen if you got pulled over driving with two leaves taped to your eyes and told the officer that you lost your glasses. Squinting can work as well.

I didn't know that ATGoogleVideo also supports Youtube. Maybe you should rename it to ATGoogleYoutubeVideo. ;) I've updated the blog entry with this information. Thanks Matthew.

Quick correction in one thing you mention, though--ATGoogleVideo supports both Google Video and YouTube video, contrary to the example you provide. We have used it with many clients for both formats.
