I posted a link to and a description of the InkGram Silverlight-based app over on my other blog.
If you want to dig right in here's a temporary link to the InkGram app. Once again, the program (which requires Silverlight so it requires Windows or a Mac) enables you to post a handwritten message or simple drawing to Flickr and optionally Twitter.
The program is one step along the way to a bigger app that I need to finish off now. What's it? A notetaking-slash-whiteboarding-like app, written in Silverlight. I was working on some rather complicated pieces of it and Bob, a developer I work with, asked why I didn't try a simpler Flickr and Twitter-based app first. And so InkGrams were born. InkGrams are also inspired by Dave Winer's work and encouragement for expanding the supported data types of Twitter.
Now that the first pass at InkGrams is running, it's time to get back to the notetaking app. I'm not sure if I'll get to it today, tomorrow, or even this week, but I'll give it a go. It's one of those things I find easy enough to work on at an hour at a time here and there. So fingers crossed I'll find an hour or two to get it going.
