One year on

March 3rd, 2008 - nathanael · 8 Comments


This past Saturday marked the one year anniversary of our photoblog project. In the past year we’ve had a total of 831 submissions from ten different users spanning four continents (Australia - you’re next). I’ve been debating (mostly, with myself via non-stop internal monologue) how to manage the project in an ongoing manner. I’m not sure if it’s best to keep this project self hosted on drupal or to move it to an external service (likely flickr or picasa) that would handle hosting, resizing, headaches and whatnot. But regardless of any technical issues, we’ve still made it a full year, so by way of celebration here are the ten most popular tags as of this morning.

North End (54)

Maija (50)

Steven (47)

Marathon (30)


Allston (30)

Snow (30)

Downtown (29)

Africa (28)

Boston (26)

Christine (21)

Thanks again to those who contribute to this and looking forward to another good year!

      It’s come to my attention that the Z tag (24) is actually more popular than the Christine tag but I can’t bring myself to knock the little dork off the top ten list.

      The combo of Christine and assorted nicknames (Chrissy, beautiful, etc) totals more than 24! I think a recount is in order!!

      Um, there are no Chrissy tags. And the one beautiful tag with said person is also tagged Christine. Now if you can find specific examples missing tags, like this, then maybe.

      Just like politics. The vote doesn’t matter, it’s the people who have the power that count.

      Oh, and congrats on a great and successful Year One!

      Well the Chrissy tag was *updated* to accurately reflect proper subject!

      Ok. I’ve just gone back and counted again. After whatever gerrymandering or whatnot that went down last night, there are six additional photos tagged with the disputed tag pushing the total to 27 and into a lock for the top ten (actually, to #9 ahead of Boston). Power to the people.
