If you check in frequently at our Flickr site, you may have noticed a few changes. Flickr is constantly evolving as more features are added, deleted, or made easier to use. Most recently, the layout of pages have seen some improvements. Everything feels a little more 'logical' and easier to navigate.

Sets with thumbnail previews go down the right side of the page. The most recent photos uploaded to Flickr are on the left. Links to sets, tags, archives, favorites, popular, etc. are at the top.

Security conscious Karri has started to restrict who can view photos. I tried to tell her that the psycho next door is more of a concern than than wierdo on a computer somewhere. Nevertheless, she is changing permissions on photos of the girls to Friends and Family only. That means that you must have an account with Flickr (Free and I have never recieved any spam as a result of signing up) and be logged in to view photos. I will send invitations to everyone who has not already joined Flickr. They will come via email.

I found a link on the Flickr blog about a new group called 'The Blink of an Eye'. In July, Flickr is hosting a juried exhibition of photos from this group in New York. Any member of Flickr can submit one photo to this group to be considered for inclusion in the exhibition. The blog makes it sound like only five photos will be selected. Anyway, there are some really good photos to be viewed. Browsing through photos on Flickr is truly addictive. It reminds me of the 'Day in the Life' photo books from Time, etc. Flickr is a day in the life of the world.
