Did you know that you can publish your Flickr feed as thumbnails on any website? Chances are that if you have a pulse and a pair of working eyes, you already knew. Just about every blog you see on the web nowadays has a few latest thumbnails from Flickr in the sidebar or something. Occasionally, you get something like this:
I’m just trying to focus on the content here, but there’s some weird kid there… I mean, I just can’t concentrate in these conditions! Just food for thought… I mean, if you know you are going to be publishing weird, quirky pictures to your Flickr collection, maybe you shouldn’t republish that feed right next to the body content of your blog, you know what I mean? They can be really distracting!
p.s. the website featured here is Photo Matt.

Responses to my articleThey feel very livejournal, xanga-y sometimes, but I suppose that can be the desired effect.
Thanks for letting me know this, I was working on Blackthorne’s Flickr theme and this is very useful.
Sam: Photo Matt used to have his random Flickr photos at the top right of this site, right next to the title… I think that worked better.
Kyle: I like the themes that have a separate section for Flickr photos between the body content and the footer, rather than just having them sitting right next to the body content.
Perhaps the start-up looking to hire a product manager are called, ‘Zombie’s Unite’ or something similar.
