There was an article on TechCrunch today about a massive mistake made by Flickr: IT architect and Flickr user Mirco Wilhelm couldn’t log on to his 5-year old account yesterday, and when he asked the Flickr team about this issue they flat out told him they had accidentally flushed his entire account, and the 4,000 [...]
I’m so excited. While I’ve been away on vacation, my two favorite photo sites have formed a partnership. Flickr & Snapfish now work well together. I used to have to upload my pics to both places when I wanted to create gifts or order prints – now I can just upload my pics to Flickr [...]
Woo Hoo!! Just what Flickr has been misssing – the ability to tag people who appear in the photos! I was looking at pictures from Internet Librarian and a change in Flickr popped out at me – there is now a small link on the right hand side of the page that lets you list [...]
First, I am obviously behind on my blog reading – but I just learned from Cnet that Flickr has announced a new feature – Galleries. There’s a long list of features that we’ve wanted to develop for our members. Giving our members a way to celebrate the creativity of their fellow members has always been [...]

You can now also now search for people within your contacts. You should check it out if you have a lot of contacts like [...]
Have you ever tagged someone else’s photo on Flickr? I have, but usually only when I’m in it. I guess anonymous tagging happens more than we realize and so Flickr has now added the ability to see who added the tag: Flickr has quietly made a big change to its tagging system, which from now [...]
I’ve been looking through a lot of photos on Flickr lately and have noticed that not many people are putting their pictures on the map. Why is this? I love adding my traveling (never pictures taken at home) pictures on the map. This way there is always a location tag on my photos. I also [...]
Oh neat!! I was playing with Last.fm today and saw that I could link my photos from concert to the concert page on Last.fm. So I put a machine tag on my pictures and all of the sudden they were linked right to Last.fm: How cool is that? I didn’t know that you could do [...]
