Some horrifically overdue updates

It’s been several months now since I last said anything noteworthy (bar expressing my disgust at the science funding crisis) and it’s probably time that I wrote something.

jUploadr 1.1

Yay!
[regains composure]
jUploadr 1.1 was released today, and now is probably the only Zooomr bulk uploader, and seems to be very good.

Hope for the weeks Zooomr updates

Over the next week the Zooomr team is going to be making some fairly major updates to progressively beta photo sharing site Zooomr.
Personally I hope for:

Better support for privacy settings.

A wordpress plugin.
The bulk uploader.

And thanks to zooomr for the qouta reset.
