Get Your Flickr Pics in SL
Posted Tuesday, May 30th, 2006, at 10:26 am Eastern by Mark Wallace
Via Glitchy comes a blog post from “creative technologist” Matt Biddulph, who has written a Second Life hack that brings Flickr pics into SL by grabbing a random selection from a tag that you submit within the world. This one does make use of SL’s new http call functionality. Wouldn’t be hard to make it a slide show, as well. A nice complement to the “Flickr of SL” we blogged about the other day. Oh and there’s a nice video on Matt’s site demoonstrating how it works.

Cool! Inspired, I went and built one over on the ‘Bluggcast Balcony’ ;)
Uses PHP and I think does things differently, with a slideshow.
It’s fun - and ’sticky’ ;)
Shame it would need to rely on my php serving - so I’ll release the php o/s.
It woul dbe an idea for Lindeon to supply a teenie bit of php / whatever hosting just for this type of thing. I hear they have plans for some kind of external data storage.
Great site btw!
