Flickr - Online Picture Sharing Done Right?
05:19 PM | Permalink | Comments (0) | TrackBack (23) ~ Biz - Internet
The Flickr blog posts this about a recent Salon article. In the article they say...
Posting photos on Flickr is like personal reporting.
All cool, but my one big problem with the site is that it is very Flash intensive. Since I use Firefox (see my post below), and don't have Flash installed on it, it can be a problem. Jeezz, Typepad can create a site in DHTML, or whatever, that's pretty feature rich. Seems like there has to be a better way than an evil Flash U.I. Granted, it's not so super-evil as to not work at all without Flash installed, but you can't take advantage of some of the more advanced features like little pop-up dealios used to annotate an image.
Update: 2005_18_01
I've been uploading photos over the past few days, and have noticed that when re-naming the photo using their Flash application in IE it "crashes" all the time. Ugh. Keep it simple. Another thing is that the ads look like part of their UI. Very confusing. Oh, and I just now noticed (since it doesn't show up in the UI unless you mouse over the area), is that you can add a description to the photo instead of just commenting on it like I have been doing. Doh! Make the UI elements obvious.. not some sort of treasure hunt. That said, pretty cool.
Update: 2005_18_01 later in the day
Late breaking new... don't use Flash (or at least IE with Flash). Use Firefox with no Flash plug-in installed, and the site works fine with the exception of the more advanced features.
I've noticed that one of the things that Flickr does so well is design. They make your photo layout look pro. So you've got MoveableType, Flickr and Apple doing some cool design these days. More on this later.
