And if you fancy digging into the Flickr API the world is your oyster. Raymond Yee's book (something with "mashup" in the title, it's upstairs and I'm not) looks at Flickr extensively, it having pretty much the best API out there from the social software sites (in his view). I know these things go out of date pretty fast but I'd recommend checking it out. Cheers, Jeremy

You can embed the new Flickr slideshows in your HTML content; they're way more flexible and versatile than the badges. I've also used the Drupal Flickr module with some success. There's another that I haven't tried called Flickr Attach that looks promising.

I thought I remembered that Flickr provided all sorts of neat templates for taking our content from Flickr and posting it to our website. Instead (as I might have expected had I thought about it) I am seeing only flickr badges. Has anyone come up with a nifty way to share content between their website (we use Drupal if that helps) and Flickr such that the same images don't have to have metdata attached twice? ari _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to mcn-l, the listserv of the Museum Computer Network (http://www.mcn.edu <http://www.mcn.edu/> ) To post to this list, send messages to: mcn-l at mcn.edu To unsubscribe or change mcn-l delivery options visit: http://toronto.mediatrope.com/mailman/listinfo/mcn-l The MCN-L archives can be found at: http://toronto.mediatrope.com/pipermail/mcn-l/
