20 Feb 07 commandN #80
This isn’t the first time that one of my sites has been mentioned on commandN, but it is pretty cool to see it up there. It’s one of the few video podcasts that I am able to keep up on.
They linked to my site about Google opening Gmail up to the everyone, and the funny Gmail ad on YouTube.
If you don’t watch commandN, you should. Check out Episode 80 here, and subscribe to their video podcast using iTunes.
When’s Amber going to invite me up to co-host a show with her? 
31 Jan 07 Flickr users up in arms
Last night, I got a ::insert sarcasm:: oh so friendly email from “The Flickreenos,” telling me that since I’m an “Old Skool Account-Holding Flickr Member” member of the Flickr community, that I now must move my account over to a Yahoo account.
I don’t know if you’ve ever read this blog before, but I tend to dispise Yahoo. Google is my preference when it comes to searching, email, calendar, docs, spreadsheets, notebooks, chat, video, start page, and more. I don’t use Yahoo one bit. Not for anything. Was I glad for the Flickr team when they got purchased by Yahoo, ehh not really. I don’t like Yahoo, never have.
I do love Flickr though. It’s awesome. I even created a successful website “empire” around Flickr, which I later sold for quite a large sum. I even PAY for the Flickr service. Flickr’s announcement also will involve limiting contacts to 3000 (to “improve system performance”), I have to start asking popular Flickr users, to not delete me? I thought Flickr was all about social networking!
There seems to be quite a large number of folks pissed about this. Thomas Hawk chronicles a number of the complainst posted on Flickr’s forums.
I will NOT be changing my account over to a Yahoo one anytime soon. The cut off is March 15th, and if there isn’t some sort of alternative offered, I will have to reconsider my personal choice in online photo hosting. I currently have an account on Zooomr, of which Thomas Hawk is the CEO. Looks like, I’m not going to be the only one moving my photos over there.
13 Jul 06 FlickrLicio.us & Amanda Congdon
What do these two things have to do with each other, well I didn’t think much, but as it turns out there was a blogger who recently found out that both are gone from their previous positions.
As previously mentioned, I sold FlickrLicio.us and it looks like there is some nice development going on over there. I can’t wait to see the finished product.
12 Jul 06 One year ago…
I realized I’ve been using WordPress to blog for quite some time now….well over a year. I found a cool plugin that allows you to see what was blogged about one year ago today. It’s on the sidebar, so check it out next time you are on the site.Â
Below I posted the items posted on July 12, 2005. Looks like I launched FlickrLicio.us one year ago today.Â
…from July 12, 2005…
15 Jun 06 Sold: FlickrLicio.us
I was contacted by the creator of FlickrBabes about purchasing FlickrLicio.us since I Flickr decided they didn’t want to allow hotlinking to the site any longer. He purchased the site for an undisclosed sum.
I have been assured that he has great plans for the site, I look forward to see what evolves. It was a great site and I’m glad that I was able to provide that service to everyone for as long as I could.
