I haven’t blogged for soooo long… am I a bad person?

Just started my webcapture script again for Blogwise - it waits 5 seconds for a page to load before taking a picture. There are over 15,000 blogs now (yay). I make that almost 21 hours. I’ve just started it now, so if there are no problems (which there almost certainly will be…), I should be done by tomorrow night!

The script itself is a hacked up Visual Basic program, with some DDI calls to Mozilla Firefox. It takes a full-screen capture and dumps the BMP to a file. I then run a program on all those bitmaps (15,000 bitmaps is a lot…) to make them into JPEGs, then do a mass upload. I need to find a better way of doing this :-(….
