Well done to the good people at Blogspot for upgrading the way pictures on blogs can be enlarged. Clicking on a picture here used to navigate the visitor forward to a separate location/URL where the pic could be viewed in a larger format - up to full size. Lots of hitting 'back' involved. Now, clicking a photo causes it to pop up, enlarged and photo gallery-stylee, without navigating away from the page. Nice. Preferable. Looks better. Visitor 'experience'-improving, I'd say. Well done.
Try it out with the screenshot I made to illustrate this:
Then you can make screenshot of the screenshot, and then a screenshot of that screenshot and so on and so on until you become disconnected from reality. Like that thing when you have a mirror behind you and you look into the mirrored door of a bathroom cabinet. Move the door around a bit to be transported into an infinite stack of alternative universes. It's like the start sequence to a very old episode of Doctor Who, or something.
[edit: it gets better... the Blogspot photo viewing upgrade, I mean... if you click on a picture that is one of several included in a single blog entry, you can scroll between that pic and the others via a gallery functionality. Nice, nice. This is good. this is my england opted for Blogspot without really thinking about it and, when seeing fancier features on some other (trendier?) platforms, has then sometimes felt a little wistful about the look-and-feel that might have been. So this is all good, More, more. Yes, yes.]
