My long term infatuation with flickr may be my undoing… (skipping past the gripes about flickr’s design changes) (also skipping past whatever monkey goo that Google is offering for your photos) (anything else?). To me, what’s more important about flickr is what you do not see on the site or the (still partly crippled) mobile […]
That dog named “Loki” is not rolling over, she is flipping (?) In my last post, I suggested questioned perhaps that The Chronicle of Higher Education was not following the guidelines of reusing my flickr Creative Commons Share-ALike licensed photo. With some twitter nudges by Bryan Alexander, I did get an answer from the Chronicle […]
Not long ago Flickr added two more options for published photos choosing creative commons licenses, both CC0 and a Public Domain. This is a good thing, even if to me it adds more confusion as to which Public Domain license (both are PD licenses with differences perhaps requiring close readings with a lawyer) one might […]
The flickr cc attribution helper is among my most proud creations; I can pretty much tell when I read other blogs who is using it. And it all started from the most important place, something to make my blogging practice easier. I’d written earlier about an unintended outcome of moving it from a browser extension […]
An endless theme in the CogDogBlog House, promoting the radical, all so time consuming habit (invisible sarcasm tags here) of giving other people attribution for what they share. Eight years ago I hoped I had coined linktribution. Never caught on. But since I’m on a flickr roll as it seems from the confusion of licensing […]
Right there is a test of new flavor of my flickr cc attribution helper where it generates copy/paste code to put the image in a wordpress post, but place the attribution text in a WordPress image caption structure. This is the default output using the regular version of the helper, but in making a new […]
creative commons licensed ( BY ) flickr photo shared by StockMonkeys.com Hey! Stand up, code up, hack up! Just because [fill in the blank of your favorite web service that yanked the chain on a feature you adored] took away a feature, you are not powerless. One of my long running favorite flickr features was […]
cc licensed ( BY NC ND ) flickr photo shared by Gino Carteciano My first flickr photo was posted in late March 2004; my most recent one, last night (February 8, 2014), that’s 35,693 photos. I just downloaded almost all of them; a 71 Gb file that took more than 13 hours to download, and […]

It’s gotta be monkeys (no offense to the primates) (but I love it when my creative common search turns up an image from a friend, hi Chris).
Seriously– who is Yahoo using as a test group for the “new” flickr? The latest WTF is the insertion of a Yahoo navigation bar that looks like it was hand coded in the mid 1990s.
On looking at the page source I truly accepted to see a bunch of
tags. At least it was not that bad. Maybe there is some humor at Monkey Web Design Shops, since the main div id is named “eyebrow” and the interior divs are all called “yucs”
Yeah. YUCK- they cannot even spell that correctly.
I was curious to see what the infestation of ads was like, so I hopped over to Safari to explore Flickr when I was logged out or using an old free account I use very rarely. The most odd thing was in Safari there is no Ugly Butt Yahoo Navigation Bar.
cc licensed ( BY NC SA ) flickr photo shared by Tojosan Long ago when I was working at Maricopa, I called our computer repair department to fix some issue with an Apple computer. I was a bit incredulous when Bill the Repair technician opened the case, and whacked the hard drive with his screwdriver, […]
