Flickr on Xbox Media Center
Posted by Jeremy Charette in "SOFTWARE" @ 06:00 AM
"LOL... I can just see all the MCE users getting boiling mad when they find out that a Flickr plug-in for Xbox Media Center is now available (via F-Stop Blues). So, what's up MCE developers? Why can't someone get on the ball and code a Flickr plug-in? Just to add salt to the wound, TiVo has had a HME Flickr plug-in since February of this year. Ouch!"
Flickr has taken off like a rocket in the past few months, usurping many of the other photo sharing services on the 'net. Bloggers everywhere are using it to post photos to their blogs and upload pictures to moblogs. Apparently now people are even using it to share photos on their Xboxes and Tivos. Neat stuff. It really amazes me sometimes what a creative coder can do with a simple idea. But it's a good question, why hasn't this been done on MCE yet? :roll: If you ask me, I think it's the lack of grassroots support for MCE among the "haX0r" community. No amount of money can buy that for Microsoft.
