Flickrvision
Addictive much? Possibly, depending on your level of acceptable and anonymous voyeurism. Sounds worse than it is. Flickrvision presents realtime Flickr photos as they’re geotagged to Google maps. If that didn’t make sense, just see Flickrvision in action. Weddings, car crashes, feet, family photos, hangover cures, pets…you name it, you’ll most likely see it. When will we get to the point where there’s a site like Flickrvision, but for video, where you can zoom in on any city and see someone’s live broadcast? It’s coming. You know it is. How long watching Flickrvision until you recognize someone?
I’m more and more impressed with what people can mashup. Thank goodness for open APIs and an increasingly colloborative online community.
I almost forgot to mention Twittervision. It’s just as enthralling. Although you’ll most likely just get updates on a person’s daily humdrum activities, sometimes words of wisdom, ancient koans, and thoughtful haiku are waiting to be read.
