It only exists in an attempt to prevent linkrot. No new content will be added to this site, and links and images are liable to be broken. Check out begbie.com to find where I'm posting stuff these days.

Slide’s Code: 2004-2010

Inspired by Daniel Bogan's visualization of the Flickr codebase (http://vimeo.com/11876335), I pulled together this view of Slide's code repository since the first commit on 01-Sep-2004.



Branches are directories, blobs are files (coloured by file type -- swfs are green, python is pale blue, etc), and the buzzing-around things are committers.

“Flow Slow Could Flood”

“Flow Slow Could Flood”

This is written on a pipe at Slide. After walking past it, I always get the phrase stuck in my head, because I like the sound of it. To me, it sounds like it should be some mythical warrior: "The Amazing Stories of Floslo Cüdfludd".
