Flickr Goodness
Well, a month or two after moving my photos over from Fotki to Flickr, I’ve finally finished giving identifying tags to each and every photo.
People take different approaches to their tags, but mine was to generally identify a) who was in the photo, b) where the photo was taken and c) what is going on. I am excited that the EXIF standard (for digital cameras to encode information in the photo file the moment the picture is taken) has the option to store coordinates from a GPS-enabled device. It’d be a moment of technological beauty if you could see thumbnails of the photos you’ve taken superimposed over a massive Google Map, located exactly on the map where they were taken. Actually, with the Flickr API and Google Maps API being open to the public, this is something that’s actually possible now.
OK, it’s been done. Amazing. Guess I should have Googled it before I started.
At this time, I have 20 photosets, and over 2100 photos, with subjects ranging from our wedding to Oktoberfest to our cat, Rosie.

That cat only looks sweet and innocent. But she’s a trained attack cat, I speak the truth!

Now come on, look at her face… How could she ever attack someone, looking like this?
