Flickr - the reference in the division of photographs


More than 37 million photographs in line, 1,2 million members... Flickr is one of the outstanding phenomena of Internet in 2005. The principal idea being to divide its photographs, the Net surfer is invited to "tagger" its stereotypes, i.e. to give them labels or keywords ("Geneva", "cat", "Lausanne-sport", etc). With him to choose which are visible by no matter whom, and which are intended for a restricted circle Net surfers – currently, more than 80% of the photographs are public. Among its functionalities, a small tool of transport to be alerted when one receives a comment on one of his stereotypes - the possibility of sticking small virtual labels on the photographs to bring precise comments there - a function RSS allowing to know the topicality of friendly albums on line - possibility of exporting its albums towards any Web site - a module to view albums in diaporama.
