That's really cool. We are thinking of bringing this concept to our youth department, everytime we have someone new come in, we can add them to the wall. Very cool idea Bob.
Thanks everybody! I took 7 more this past weekend at the cake party. I wanted to take more but... you're right, Polaroid has discontinued this film that I use. Hopefully someone else will start making this higher quality instant film... or else I'll just have to figure out another way to keep this thing going...
Heya! I finally started scanning and posting all of the Polaroids! Woohoo! Check em out! Expect about 2 or so a day. At that rate, they should all be up by Dec 31 2009.

Polaroids are awesome... aren't they quitting making it for the U.S.? If so this is like a time capsule of the good 'ol days.
shirtflirt
dude you must be super rich

I was going to mention how much money must be tied up in the film on this project...

Awesome idea, oh and Nomad, I heard that some people are trying to get some other company to make them. Here is their website www.savepolaroid.com.

coolsy. Polaroids are like a buck each.
That's like...a lot of money.
brightfever
omg that so fucking cool.
no thats like.. A SHETLOAD OF MONEY. |:
BNannas
Well, spread over 7 years, it lessens the monetary blow.
Sucks that now the film is even MORE expensive. Just bought 100 exposures on ebay so this'll go on a little while longer!
0Jim0
thats pretty awesome.

Love your project. Yeah, there's something special about a polaroid and I think you've captured it in your work. Good luck!
TheDood
There's a childrens book called "Flotsam" based on that idea...awesome book even for adults. It won the Caldecott medal too.

hella wickedly sweetly sick.

Bob - you could buy a really small portable photo printer and snap using digital from now on...slightly slower but almost instant!
You should look into something called Deep Zoom that Microsoft is creating - it could be perfect for the website.
