photos then you'd generally get from polling Everyone's photos. The quality is pretty good, the best thing to do is watch The Panda for a while and figure out if a) you want to build something with a
live stream of photos b) you can build something more better than a vomiting panda (which lets face it, it pretty hard to top!)."

Pullum of Language Log defines 'nerdview': "It is a simple problem that afflicts us all: people with any kind of technical knowledge of a domain tend to get hopelessly (and unwittingly)
stuck in a frame of reference that relates to their view of the issue, and their trade's technical parlance, not that of the ordinary humans with whom they so signally fail to engage... The
phenomenon - we could call it nerdview - is widespread." Woo, go year-month-day, go!
