Photos lost during a server migration

This blog lost a bunch of photos during a migration process from Dreamhost to Slicehost. We are trying to get those valuable memories back. Panda is once again sad.

Sprint lasted a weekend. Friday was dedicated to the planning and setting the objectives and deliverables. Saturday was used for implementing and eating properly. And rest of the sunday for making sure that we deliver.

And we sure did!

Now it's up to Mika to finish up front-end. Stay tuned!
