Picasa albums via Google Maps in iGoogle.

Picasa albums via Google Maps was an assignment for my Google interview. Essentially its an iGoogle widget that allows you to see your Picasa folders in Google Maps on you iGoogle homepage. It only works if you have your Picasa albums tagged with Geo Coordinates (Longitude/Latitude).

Sadly I didn't get the job (they said I wasn't technical enough!), but have decided to continue supporting the widget. Anyway, I've been tweaking it here and there, but not many people have used it yet. I'm guessing because Picasa + iGoogle + GeoRSS isn't that popular as most cameras don't have GPS (yet)

If you have any comments, enhancements, or anything you'd like added to it, feel free to shoot me an email.

Adobe Kuler

Kuler is a really cool web based color management tool provided by Adobe, Inc. My company UDFI and The Chopping Block, worked with Adobe in developing the RSS backend in Coldfusion and MySQL. After we rolled out the app, I've been consulting Adobe in various capacities. For about a year now helping out with optimization, load testing, metrics gathering and general architecture suggestions. Check it out!
