Wow, the Response to The

Wednesday, December 26 2001

Wow, the response to the cinnamon challenge has been pretty crazy. That was just one idea of many, but it actually made it to the web. I sat down, whipped out the code and images for it, and now have people talking about it all over. So I’ve decided to always keep the camera handy, and always be in a position to whip out the code.

A lot of people are saying things like “programmers with too much time on their hands” when in reality the idea to do the challenge occurred at lunch, we stopped by the grocery store on the way back to work, sat down, grabbed a camera, did the deed. Later on I compiled everything and made a mini site. The entire event probably took an hour and a half, everyone’s time included. Not a bad time investment for the fun involved.
