lazy-slides considers getting off its lazy butt and being constructive

31Dec11

I’m happy to announce the first “release” of lazy-slides, an experiment in slideshow generation for lazy bums. The idea is simple:

  1. You provide a list of keywords
  2. lazy-slides finds pictures from the internet matching those keywords
  3. lazy-slides creates a presentation/slideshow from those pictures
  4. You present!

Right now it’s a bit rough. The only image source I’ve coded up is for flickr (if you don’t count the dummy test source.) Also, the only output backend it supports is beamer. In both cases, it should be relatively straightforward to extend lazy-slides.
