I don't, no. I do still see people adding osm:* tags to their photos
though, via the RSS feeds, but realistically I don't expect its gotten
much traction.
Like the blog post said it's still pretty a "dorky" feature and that
means it really needs some love and tools and examples to help people

Do you have an idea of how often OSM machine tags are added to items
in Flickr, and how often those
For what it's worth we were aware that IDs were technically considered
unstable when we started down the OSM machine tags "extras" road, at Flickr.
It seemed like a reasonable potential gotcha given that most of the IDs
are stable most of the time and the risks were outweighed by the
benefits
The stable ID question to me comes down to philosophy: It would be nice
if the world was stable but it's not.
Asking for stable IDs is like asking for the world not to change. But it
does, continuously. Any road changes over time in name, surface,
connectivity and it's other attributes. Perhap
Is there any way to tag a bunch of 'errors' as false positives in one
action? I ask because there are a number of "motorways without ref" such
as

I did a map once with links to local pubs. I found storing their
latitude and longitude was good enough
