Flickr fun

I just blew the dust off my Flickr account (unused since the Carcacookies Incident) to upload a bunch of stuff from my iPhone. It may be a crappy, unadjustable camera, but it's nonetheless an internet-aware digicam with effectively unlimited storage that is always in my pocket, so I've been taking lots of photos since last July. I waited this long because of a photo-swapping email thread on our Hunt team mailing list where someone proposed a group Flickr tag.

I have been throwing photos onto Facebook in the interim, but it's not the same. As far as I can tell, those photos aren't public, and you can't tag them as freely as Flickr allows.

Went through my "FlickrMail" and back-added everyone who added me as a contact over the years (and who didn't appear to be a 419 scammer), and then plugged their feeds into my RSS reader, a bit of technology I've only really started to use in the last year. So yeah, feel free to add zendonut as a contact, if you'd like.

I had some fun reading comments that I didn't know about, since I'd never set Flickr to alert me by email when my photos got comments. (I just rectified this.) Amused that a 2000 photo whose caption references Randal Schwartz's in-airplane photos got a comment from Randal Schwartz saying exactly what I was thinking, as I sat here reading that caption again in 2009.

Unsurprisingly, the Carcacookies got lots of comments. This one is my favorite. Fans of [livejournal.com profile] cthulhia's work should not miss the Memoir 35 cake that she and [livejournal.com profile] classicaljunkie constructed, and unveiled at the hunt.

Do I know http://www.flickr.com/photos/vampirefriends/? They seem to be a fellow Somervillain.
