Random Flickr Pic Post

I wanted to write up my predictions for the Stanley Cup Finals today but I have been up to my eyeballs with busy.

Just so you know I didn’t forget about you, oh bloggie of mine, here’s a pic from the random pic set on Flickr.

I’ll be back later.

Random Flickr Pic Post

Just continuing to feed the Flickr.

I have been going to the People You May Know page off of the Flickr homepage and just clicking on suggested users (there, I just clicked on eight of them) and following them.  It’s made the contact feed on my homepage pretty fantastic.  Why, though, does Flickr assume I have a huge interest in pictures of abandoned buildings.  Not just houses, but factories and warehouses and everything.  Good stuff though, just a little hyper focused is all.

I’ve also been messing with new sets.  Sort of setting up single sets from different locations that we’ve gone to multiple times.  Sort of like collections, but only they will show up on my sets page… because they’re sets.  I did this once before but never kept things up to date.

I have updated my Methuen and Boston sets, and made new sets for the White Mountains, New York City, and San Diego.  I’m also thinking of making sets for Florida, the oceans (plural), maybe the Merrimack Valley so I can stick all of the Methuen, Tewksbury, Lowell, and what not together.  We’ll see.

Keep feeding the Flickr.

iPhone Video

Video taken with an iPhone, and then uploaded directly from the phone to youtube kinda looks like utter crap, don’t you think? Word on the street is that the next iOS release is going to include integration with Flickr and Vimeo, similar to the way it integrates with Facebook and Twitter in iOS 6.

I might have to go sign me up for a Vimeo account just out of spite.

A Little More Flickr Love

I went to Flickriver.com and put in my user and then clicked random. It’s not very random, as the first 20 pics were from the same set, but I pulled out a few to add here for no reason other than to show Flickr some hosting love.

More Feeding the Flickr

The Flickr homepage has always had a space for groups that you belong to. It used to show the few most recent pictures added to one group, and I think it linked to one or two others. I don’t think I ever clicked on anything group related from the homepage.

Now there are two pictures displayed in the upper right hand corner of the homepage, one each from two random groups. I find myself looking at that every time I log on. I look at the latest contact upload or two, or three, and then I check out whatever groups came up.

It makes me want to view the groups, and it makes me want to add images. I just added this one to a group called Reflections in Water.

I wanted to add this one, which I like a while lot more, but it wasn’t really applicable.
