by Devin on Mar.31, 2009, under Programming

Twitter Hook is a small PHP app uses Twitters search API to pull the most recent tweets containing a specified keyword. This is just an early version. I plan on converting it to a wordpress plugin along with adding a few features it in the near future. Download link and demo of it searching for the keyword ‘twitter’ after the break. Please leave any comments, criticism, or questions in the comments.

CImg

by Devin on Mar.13, 2009, under Graphics, Programming

CImg is a nice little C++ library that I discovered the other day. It’s described as a ‘Image Processing Toolkit’. It consists of a few classes. First CImg, a representation of a image. Its a pretty versatile class, It can handle up to 3 dimensions of image data with a variable number of channels. It has tons of functions ranging from your basic load/save to more advanced image manipulation functions such as drawing graphs and various blurs. CImgDisplay is the second class and it basically handles the creation of a window for your image so you dont have to learn opengl and/or your OS’s window manager of choice just to display a simple image to a window. It will keep track of any input or any changes the user makes to the window. The other classes (CImgException and CImgList) are nice, just not as massively useful as the other two. Its great for the new incarnation of my raytracer and would have been great for some of my old projects from way back. I highly recommend it for any simple image related work.
