Live feed of images being posted to Twitpic

Allan Grinshtein's PingWire is addictive.

PingWire is an (almost) live feed of images being posted to Twitpic. Clicking on a thumbnail will take you to the full sized photo.

Site is too slow!

Seems about 1 in 12 are pix of someone's cat.

Finally a substitute for my addiction to the random LJ-image generator web pages!

oh man... i didn't need to see that full-armed adult pleasuring action. despite that one thing, this site is actually kind of cool!

@Heatmizuh - Welcome to the Internet.

And a new channel for spam is born.

inundated with porn spam in 3...2..1...

[#13 posted by ethancoop, July 13, 2009 2:23 PM]

5th pic in, large boobies. 20th pic in, Asian porn. Yep this is the internet.

[#14 posted by Anonymous, July 13, 2009 2:51 PM]

This got old really fast.

I can see this getting to be an addictive procrastination technique quickly... Load site, refresh, go awwwww over the cat pictures, rinse and repeat.

[#16 posted by phlavor, July 13, 2009 3:03 PM]

I clicked just to see how many pics until I saw a boob. 5 is the answer. But surprisingly none since.

[#17 posted by ivan256, July 13, 2009 3:06 PM]

Didn't take long to start seeing repeats.

I wonder how they determine what the 'newest' are.

[#18 posted by ivan256, July 13, 2009 3:07 PM]

Hmm... After seeing what looked like a naked 8-year-old, I think I'll stop looking at that now before the men in the black vans come and take away my computer.

This story needs a "Warning: Contains Kiddie Porn" on it.

this website is interesting. Your screenshot is awesome because it has the lead singer of my favorite band, All Time Low, in it.

so weird, I was zenning on twitpic homepage last night, and then I think, heh this is what the nsa spooks do... all day, ekk.

[#21 posted by Anonymous, July 13, 2009 6:41 PM]

It would be better if new images would simply draw over old images from left to right, top to bottom. The whole grid scrolling for every update is irritating. Other than that---SWEET!

A picture of a naked eight year old is not porn. It's a picture of a child with no clothes on.

[#23 posted by Anonymous, July 13, 2009 8:12 PM]

it's been blocked...

[#24 posted by Nword, July 14, 2009 1:08 AM]

It's either blocked or it's killed the twitpics server..

now giving a 502 error.

[#25 posted by vetlemakt, July 14, 2009 4:31 AM]

You could try http://picfog.com instead. Same shit, different wrapping.

[#26 posted by z7q2, July 14, 2009 5:38 AM]

yup, the thumbs are now fail and clicking on the links gives you a 403 forbidden. but if you paste the link into a fresh window it works. so twitpic is blocking the site based on the referrer

a shame. I love picture aggregators, being a photoshopper. they are great for when you're looking for inspiration

#22:

It wasn't your typical pic of a naked 8 year old on the beach. It was disturbingly seemingly intentionally sexualized.
