Inveterate dabbler in business, travel, gadgets & life

Natty bit of software that allows you to upload photos rather like an instant messenger. You can set wether they are public/private etc Welcome to Flickr! . Here is their own description:-

You can use Flickr to:

* Chat and exchange photos live with your friends

* Meet people who have the same interests as you

* Stay in touch with your friends and family

* Have fun

When you invite people to join Flickr you are instantly connected to them. Invite people to join! When you click through people’s profile pages to learn more about them, or search for them using their email address.

Join a group by browsing through the public groups people have already started. Or if you want to have a special group for just you and your friends, create a private group.

To benefit the most from Flickr, add more details to your profile about your interests, add a buddy icon and add photos to your gallery.

We look forward to seeing you in Flickr!

Now been running the geoff@cortexcontrollers.com into my gmail account. In little over 2 hours it received 22 spam messages of which gmail only managed to filter 10 as spam. Obviously the google guys have a lot of work to do. The spam messages were very straightforward ones mailwasher would have disposed of them instantly.

On my way to posting the fact that Laurence Lessig is appearing at THe Royal Geographical Society, London SW7 at 7.30pm on the 27th May to discuss “Creative Commons in a Connected World” tickets available here for £10.75. Google kindly offered me a gmail email account, goodness knows what I will do with it maybe direct geoff@cortexcontrollers.com into it to see how it handles shedloads of spam.
