Flickr API: Photos in a Web of Data

CMS: all

Friday - 4:15pm - Friday - 5:15pm

Description:

With over 50,000 API keys issued, and over 500,000 API calls daily, and excellent open source libraries in a dozen languages, Flickr API has proven a useful tool in the web developer toolbox.

We'll cover briefly getting started the API, the authentication model and what it means for you, and a smattering the most interesting of the
150+ API methods.

We'll wrap up with a discussion of how to move "beyond a badge" and look
at different ways to slice and dice the info Flickr gives you to
display all the interesting, relevant, community submitted, moderated,
unfiltered, private, geotagged, machine tagged, kitten tagged photos you
could possibly imagine.
