Working for one week in SF

I’ve uploaded my wild snapshots of San Francisco covering smoothies, books, bikers, shopping, browsing magazines, coffee, cars, Ocean Beach, the hotel, buildings, streets, public transport, signs, Lufthansa and waiting.

BTW, I didn’t see a single Clinton 08 poster, I did see several Obama 08 posters and a guy selling Obama buttons. I guess, it doesn’t […]

Greek version of Nutella

I am a snow bird

Kind of like Slickr

When I read Scoble’s post on FlickrFan, I felt it sounded a lot like Slickr, a screensaver tool to view Flickr photos, that I’ve been using for a while.
And today while installing the Flickr plugin for Quicksilver I saw this post:
View Your Flickr Pics as Your Screensaver with FlickrFan
with this small addition at the end:
Windows […]

Upload to Flickr with Quicksilver

This looks useful:
Upload to Flickr with Quicksilver
The QS plugin page is here.
I still need to try out the new Flickr Uploadr that was released a couple of weeks ago.

The Cloud Appreciation Society

Just heard about the The Cloud Appreciation Society.
Here’s the corresponding Flickr group.

The Nutella Alternatives Group at Flickr

Yay, the Nutella Alternatives group is growing (world dominion imminent…).
Recent additions include:

The question
Why spend so many hours and bytes on Nutella and derivatives?
It’s a web differentiator! And when people wander thru the shopping aisles with their phone cams they need a purpose.
The Flickr group lists all the details:

Weekend snaps


Weekend Thoughts

I just installed GIMPshop on my (no longer new) MacBook. And the interface looks a lot simpler.
And I received a Skitch invite. I don’t like the pink heart icon much. Kitsch.
But I somehow managed to get past that and watch the introductory video (!). The features look very useful. It offers a direct upload […]

Lego face

Seen in Martin Gyger’s Flickr stream:

These lego faces are fun!
Just like web icons… you can see the pixels when you zoom in.

Flickriver

Scrolling Ad Infinitum:
I discovered a new Flickr tool called Flickriver…
It loads all images into one long html page, i.e. you simply scroll down to view all pictures for a tag or group:
My contacts
My faves
Malawi group
Canon ImageBrowser to FlickrUploadr:
BTW, I’ve found a shortcut how to add photos from Canon ImageBrowser to Flickr Uploadr. In the ImageBrowser, […]

Ipernity Q and A

Via Flickr mail I asked somebody who seems to be on the Ipernity payroll:
Thanks for leaving a comment in my photostream.
I was wondering if you could answer my question regarding Ipernity’s funding.
Who are the investors?
Is it independent? Is it funded by venture capital? Or does it belong to another company?
See my blog post: The most […]

Basel artist Martin Gyger

Basel-based artist and illustrator, Martin Gyger, has launched a website:

The site uses Satellite and a Flickr account to display the artwork. Simple.
Couple of my favorites are [1] [2] [3]
Browse thru the site, send a friendly welcome email, or leave a Flickr comment…

The most interesting pictures

The most interesting pictures by nchenga
Cos I don’t have a Pro account at Flickr, the above link only finds the most interesting based on my last 200 snapshots.
BTW, it seems there’s a viable alternative at Ipernity. At least it loads a lot faster than Zooomr, it offers a tidy layout, and the texts have […]

nchenga’s Web 2.0 roundup: Links and comments

How many online services did you sign up for, use once or twice, and then never return again?
In my case, that would be lots of ‘em. Some of them are really popular services like Digg or Mister Wong, where I just haven’t found a personal use case, or I’ve got a substitute or workaround. […]

Selected…

Archidose has selected one of my architecture snapshots (taken with my cameraphone).

Thanks, Sean!

More Nutella Alternatives from Israel

Leah sent me snapshots of Nutella substitutes she saw at a supermarket in Israel.
I’ve added them to the Nutella alternatives group at Flickr.

I guess that covers Israel.
Want to join the fun? Join the Nutella alternatives group. Please note: you don’t need to buy or taste the stuff. A snapshot is enough.

Blog resource links

Here are a couple of starting points:
Blog hosting
Three possibilities:

Sign up with a hosted service such as WordPress.com, Typepad or Vox (fastest cos it takes all of 5 mins).
Sign up with a webspace provider that already includes blog software in their package.
Sign up with a webspace provider that offers PHP 4.x or later and MySQL and […]

Adding a Flickr gallery to my website

Like Stefan, I’m looking for a simple way to display my Flickr photos on my website. A couple of weeks ago I had a short look at the tan tan noodles album.

Today I tried out Satellite. It’s a simple php program that connects to your Flickr account. Simple and easy in setup.
There are a […]
