"Flickr Hacks," coming in February, shows you the
many cool things
you can do with Flickr, whether you're just beginning to
manage your
metadata and play with tags, or you're ready to dive into
using the Flickr API.
Don't want to wait another month? You can get the
work-in-progress
*today* through our new Rough Cuts service from Safari Books
Online.
The Rough Cuts version of "Flickr Hacks" will
continue to be updated
until the book's completed, so you'll see everything that
gets added
along the way to the finished product. You can read the book
online
(in Safari or as a PDF), or print the PDF and read offline.

print book alone
will be $29.99).

* Mash up your own photos or others' public pictures into
custom mosaics,
collages, sliding puzzles, slideshows, or ransom notes
* Geotag your photos and map your contacts
* Download a list of photos and make a contact sheet
* Make your own Flickr-style tag cloud to visualize the
frequency
of common tags
* And for the adventurous: Talk to the Flickr API using your
