There are some wonderful applications using Flickr’s API. These are from my photoset called (you guessed it) ’some faves’. Mouse over a picture to see its title in Flickr.

Photos from the trip to Philadelphia, PA / Camden, NJ being uploaded slowly but surely. The photoset thus far:
Philly Visit - Sep 14-16
There were a couple of things I wanted to do while I was down in Philadelphia, and one of them was to visit the Italian Market where David took some of his shots [...]

My Handwriting

For the Handwriting Meme group in Flickr. Check out the pool.
Because I was nothing but nerdy in school, I devoured books on handwriting analysis. I found it utterly fascinating — upper zones, lower zones, slant, pressure, the way people dot (or circle) their i’s — and revealing. What a fun 10-year old, eh? Following people [...]

Flickr PSA

www.flickr.com/account/prefs/apioptout/
I was talking to someone recently about how programs that use Flickr’s API allow people access to large sizes of your Flickr photos even when you’ve chosen the setting NOT to make larger sizes available.

This is something to keep in mind if you choose the setting: it won’t stop programs using Flickr’s API from letting [...]

Interestingness1 by thelastminute
I don’t remember how I first came across Duncan Rawlinson’s site www.thelastminuteblog.com (I first linked to him back in September 2004), but he’s been videoblogging lately and put together this movie of Flickr photography that made it to the ‘interestingness’ pages. Except for a glut of self-promotional mistagging in the middle, most of [...]

Look Familiar?

I was perusing one of the Flickr groups I started, The Adventures of Kermit, and serendipitously came across the profile of one of the members, Kevin Meredith. His profile looked vaguely familiar, so I glanced over his amazing photostream and saw this photo. If you’re a longtime Flickr member, you’ll notice [...]

Interestingness

I don’t know what formula Flickr uses to calculate “interestingness” (from what I read it changes often), but the Flickr API allows developers to display such photos in creative ways. The Flickr photographer flagrantdisregard comes to mind first, with all the Flickr Toys he’s created from badges to postcards to stamps to slideshows from the [...]

Utata.org

When I was at the Toronto Flickr meetup at the Red Room last month, I promised the webmaster of Utata.org that I would write David’s testimonial for the website. Utata.org is a site created by the Utata community on Flickr, and David contributed this photo to Utata’s first project last year, the Trains Project, which [...]
