Subject: [CODE4LIB] statistics for image sharing sites?
[snip]
My secondary question is whether any httpd gurus have recipes for redirecting by agent
string from low quality images to high quality. So when AGENT = "Pinterest/0.1
+http://pinterest.com/"; and the URL matches a pattern redirect to a different
pattern. For example:
http://nzetc.victoria.ac.nz/etexts/MakOldT/MakOldTP022a%28w100%29.jpg
to
http://nzetc.victoria.ac.nz/etexts/MakOldT/MakOldTP022a.jpg
This sounds totally doable, but what are you trying to achieve?
To my mind, it has unintended consequences and chaos writ all over it.
My naive thought was to make the images that appear in pinterest as
high-quality as possible, rather than the thumbnails that we often use
on search pages, etc.
