Start to finish was roughly 11:25:00. The timestamps on the pictures are my best way of keeping track - the picture I took at the starting line (about 5-10 minutes before I actually left) was timestamped 6:19am, and the last picture (about five minutes after I arrived) was at 5:55pm.
That surprises me a little bit. I did absolutely no training this year -- practically my only riding this year was the 8-9 mile round trip between Arlington and Kendall Square -- and expected to see my trip time suffer. But it looks like this year's ride only took me 10-15 minutes longer than when I did it two years ago.
I mailed the photos to Flickr to post them to LJ. Flickr allows you to create an e-mail address specifically for copying photos to a blog, which I'd already done. So posting was a matter of: take picture, tap the photo album icon, tap the "send" icon, start typing the Flickr blog address, select the autocomplete address, type a subject and maybe a little caption text, hit "send". Not bad but not fully automatic.
There's also a LJ client for the iPhone that allows posting pictures directly to LJ without going through Flickr. I didn't use that in this case because I actually wanted them to show up in Flickr photo pools as well.
