Description
We are excited to announce the open-source launch of Grid, the Guardian's innovative image management system. This narrative details our collaborative efforts in developing Grid, focusing on strong partnerships with our editorial teams and leveraging a contemporary technology stack. The project has been entirely Open Source, allowing for greater community engagement. Over the past year, a dedicated team has worked tirelessly to create this image management service, employing a practical Agile methodology that emphasizes direct user involvement to ensure the final product meets their requirements and expectations. The outcome is a service that is now seamlessly integrated with our print workflow, currently handling nearly half of all images featured in our digital publications. As the larger Editorial Tools teams advanced in creating a comprehensive suite of editorial solutions—encompassing content creation, workflow management, and the editing of front and section pages—the urgency for a robust media repository became increasingly crucial to our operations. The collaborative nature of this project has not only enhanced our capabilities but also strengthened our commitment to open-source principles.
Description
Timehop pioneered the realm of digital nostalgia and continues to innovate the way we reflect on our past in today's digital landscape. While we possess an abundance of "old" photos and memories, the predominant focus of the internet remains on the "new." We see a significant opportunity to create fresh methods for engaging with, narrating, and extracting meaning from our digital histories. Call us nostalgic if you will, but we firmly believe that our digital memories and past relationships hold great significance. Unlike some other daily nostalgia applications, we gather content from various popular social networks and cloud storage services. By linking platforms such as Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Dropbox, Google Photos, iCloud, and local storage, you can revisit your most cherished moments in one convenient place every day. One of Timehop's hallmark features, Then & Now, enables you to effortlessly compare a memory from your Timehop day (your "then") with a recent picture of your "now," providing a side-by-side view that beautifully illustrates your journey over time. This feature not only enhances reminiscence but also fosters deeper connections with your past.
