Guide to Flickr Tools
Posted by Suhit Gupta in "ARTICLE" @ 06:00 AM
"There Internet is replete with sites and services offering to let you organize, manage, and share your digital photographs and Yahoo's Flickr remains an undisputed leader in the field. Partly, that's because Flickr offers easy-to-use features and boasts and enormous, active, and tremendously engaged user community. But it's also because Flickr has had the foresight to let third-party developers build their own add-ons and supplementary services using Flickr's data and images. Geeks, programmers, and photo buffs have embraced Flickr's open APIs enthusiastically, so even if Flickr doesn't offer a feature you want—or its features aren't up to your task—odds are good a third-party solution already exists to solve the problem for you. So, if you're using Flickr and wondering how you can get more out of it, here's a quick introduction to some tools and services—from the cool to the geeky—which can expand your Flickr universe."
A good list of some of the top Flickr add-ons now available. I had heard of Tabblo and used FlickrStorm but that was about it so it was cool to know about the others. Have any of you written any Flickr add-ons? Actually, it would be cool to hear about other add-ons that are not on this list either. Feel free to post some links.
