Flappr, my pet project with the flash wrapper, Flashr, which
connects through the Flickr
API... fffhew, that's too many f's.... is finally online for
y'all to try:
http://bcdef.org/flappr
There's been a few Flash interfaces like this, but I think
this one's become pretty special in
its ease to explore. Some of its features:
- Sort by "interestingness" - Flickr's recent
ranking algorithm that puts more popular
photos to the top of your search
- User tabs allow you to jump from the photos you are
viewing to more photos by the user
that took them
- Related tags along the top of the screen provide jumping
points to similar tag searches
- You can now save a photo to your Flickr favorites list
(authentication requried)
- You can quickly link to the photo's page on Flickr
- … or to a permalink that brings you back to where you were
looking in Flappr
One caveat: Flappr's currently not very friendly with lower
resolutions - elements will
overlap each other at times. I mean to fix this in the near
future.
Lemme know what you think.
