Archived System Update

The moblog now creates a latest image thumbnail on the fly. This was needed as my new Treo 650 does not capture picture below 320×200. So, I figured I would moblog at 640×480, and store a thumbnail on the local server for fast display in the moblog module. The moblog checks if the date of the RSS is newer than that of the thumbnail. If so, it updates the thumbnail from the latest image in the Flickr XML. Speaking of XML, the old RSS parser that I was useing was TEH SUCK. So, I’ve switched to one that I wrote a while back. It converts XML into nice PHP arrays. I’ll be converting the moblog page to one of my own design when time allows.
