Lance Knobel: "I'd install FlickrFan in every middle school and high school social studies class. I guarantee it would provoke endless discussion and ensure engagement in the issues of the day." I totally agree. It would be great to see it at checkout lines in supermarkets and on kiosks in BART stations too.

In coming months, Flickr users will be able to edit their photos online with Picnik's technology as well as share, tag and discuss them.

It's totally appropriate that the first public demo of FlickrFan will be at Yahoo in SF during MacWorld Expo. We have room for about 85 people, we'll have soft drinks and pizza, it'll go for an hour or so, including discussion to follow.  Yahoo's San Francisco office is at 500 Third St, near Bryant, the old Organic offices, in the same building as Wired.  If you want to come, leave a comment or sign up at Upcoming. Thanks to Salim Ismail, Chad Dickerson and Bradley Horowitz of Yahoo for graciously hosting my humble product and self.

It can be difficult to determine who owns pictures on the web. Why not create an attribute for the image tag that clarifies the confusion? In Monkey Bites.

I just fixed another bug in the category processing in Flickr-to-Twitter. It's amazing that such a small piece of code can have so many bugs.  This time, the problem was if you had two tags on a photo, one of them was the one that was supposed to let your picture pass, and the other was a tag for some other purpose. You'd think the pic would flow through to Twitter.  Well, it should.  But it didn't.  Now it does.

Two new bits of news for FlickrFan users. 1. Change Note #22. If FlickrFan is opening in the wrong browser, there's a new preference that tells it to open the desktop website in the default browser, and not to bother launching a browser. You should use this feature if you find it annoying that FlickrFan launches Firefox or Safari. Eventually, if everything goes well, we'll phase out the feature. Didn't want to do it all at once because it's a dangerous place for breakage. One step at a time.  2. Change Note #23. If for some reason your copy of FlickrFan isn't updating, you can always get the latest version, quickly, without losing any of your data or prefs or downloading any pictures again. (Key point.)

I was talking with Bijan Sabet, an early user of FlickrFan, and he asked a question that I didn't know the answer to. Bijan: "I'd love a way to have FlickrFan photos on my iPhone." Early-on, I turned off synching for my iPhone, but it should be possible to synch one or all of the FlickrFan folders with the iPhone. I'll investigate, but I'm interested in knowing what other people think.

In previous versions of FlickrFan you could only see today's picture downloads and code updates on the Events page. A feature request came in saying it would be nice to be able to go back in time, and I totally agreed. That's the way it works in version 0.43, released this morning. Details, screen shot.

This is interesting .  43Things has tags as well!  A lot of people are using the Flickr dynamic and bold font treemap view which I'm not sure is good or bad. I've never been fully happy with this view but a lot of people seem to like it (so what do I know!)
