NFlick 0.3.0

26.Nov.2006

It seems one of the more annoying limitations of NFlick was it’s inability to display photos that don’t belong to any photoset (unsetted photos). A lot of flickers don’t use photosets at all, and for them NFlick wouldn’t show a single photo. Not good.

So I did a little bit of work and the just-released version 0.3.0 addresses this issue.

NFlick 0.3.0

Other new features include:

  • A slightly “hildonized” UI look & feel.
  • Informational dialog about the cache size.
  • A possibility to clear the cache.
  • Menu option to reset (remove) all private data stored.
  • Cache can be disabled.
  • Maemo-launcher is being used for faster startup.

The usual collection of links:

NFlick is a side-project of mine, but tigert has this neat idea to turn your 770 into a flickr photoframe that cycles through the recent photos posted by your contacts. It would sit quietly on your desk (connected to power & net obviously) and light-up when new content is available. I hope we’ll sit down to it at some point.

Any news on “Diva”?

When the 770 was announced I thought it was cool only for the openness of the platform. Applications like nflick start making it appealing for the masses (I loved the image browser tigert demoed during one dinner in Boston that was able to preview images in his phone over OBEX).

Flickr should be selling/advertizing photo-phone + 770 flickr sets :)

Would you please consider uploading it to the Maemo Garage repository?

I tried to install it on my Nokia 770 (that still runs the old final version of OS2006) and got a missing dependency error: hildon-libs0 >= 0.12.22-1. I have 0.12.20-1.

I wonder if rebuilding in an older scratchbox would fix that?

This is an excellent application you have here. There are a good bit of web applications that could use this type of solution. Being able to browse my Flickr photos quickly and easily on the 770 is nice. Thanks a million.

I hope something like this can be produced for applications like Google Docs & Spreadsheets and Google Calendar.
