I asked Dan Phiffer back in April if he would fix Wikipedia Animate. He finally did! http://phiffer.org/projects/wikipedia-animate/ My favorite is to animate the entire history of the front page, skipping minor edits and a relatively fast change speed. That can't be good for the servers, but it sure is awesome. Cheers, Brian

Swet. Would another db server be useful that exists just to run db-intensive tools such as this one? SJ, still a fan of the old AniWiki... On Tue, 30 Oct 2007, Brian wrote:

Well, I e-mailed him too, but no reply :) I also asked them to GPL their code... I'm sure I and others know enough javascript to fix something that's broken from interface style changes, but no luck. On 10/30/07, Samuel Klein <sj(a)laptop.org> wrote:

Awesome -- and another excellent source of possible party backdrops, to go with my WikipediaVision find from yesterday -- http://www.lkozma.net/wpv/index.html -- phoebe
