Will Ed win the prize?

Oohhhh!!  Ed Halloway beat me to it and built the Windows Home Server Add-in that we all want. It's probably a good thing he's doing it because (a) I don't really have time to write code right now and (b) I don't think I'm eligible for the Code2Fame challenge and Ed is.

Ed's Add-In is called PhotoSync and here's what he says it does on his blog:

• • PhotoSync will monitor your WHS Photos folder (or any sub folder you select) and automatically upload the contents of that folder (and every sub folder) to your Flickr account.
  • Since you get to select the 'base folder' you can, for example, create a /Photos/Private and a /Photos/Public (or /Photos/Flickr) folder in WHS and just point PhotoSync to the /Public folder - this makes sure your public photos go to Flicker and the private ones do not.
  • PhotoSync can be configured to automatically upload new photos on any scheduled basis (the minimum right now is every 15 minutes)
  • There is a WHS Console GUI Tab to configure everything, and check upload status information.

I'm downloading it now to check it out.

C'mon Ed, you are going to enter the Code2Fame chllenge, right?!?!?

So who's next? Who's going to step up and build something cooler?

  Thanks Charlie. Hope you enjoy the Add-In, let me know what you think. I am sure I will enter Code2Fame with this Add-in or one of the others I am working on. Best, -Ed
