More Fun With Flickr

I've been playing around with Flickr for a few weeks now. I haven't added any new pictures since I reached my limit of 100 with the free site. But it has rekindled my interest in digitally archiving all my photos. I'll probably sign up for a premium account when I find a slide scanner than I want to buy.

In the meantime, I've been cruising Flickr looking at other folks pictures. There's some really good stuff out there. One of the things I like is that users can add "tags" or keywoords to each photo so that they are searchable and can be grouped. You can do searches on a particular tag through the Flickr site or you can use the handy and very cool Flickr Related Tag Browser. Just type in a keyword and see what comes up.


You can find information about how the site was built here.

Or should that be more fun with Flipper?

I'm going to go ahead and get the Pro account. I agree - there are some amazing photos out there. When I get time I'll read more on - erm - "proper technique". In the meantime I'll continue to post my silly pics.

Kelly - You should take a Community College class while they are still cheap.

John - I have no fucking idea what you're on about, mate.
