Indeed! Nicely timed with my musicplasma post above. Similar concepts with different but cool features. I like the springy-ness of flickrgraph (though it eventually kills FireFox for me). posted by fenriq at 12:21 PM on February 12, 2005
I got from a random user to mathowie in just one (random) click. What are the odds? posted by Wolfdog at 12:23 PM on February 12, 2005
This is funny watchout, this application can be a really harsh on your CPU, refrain from opening if you're with a weak machine. I'd never been to the home page before, first played with it from mathowie's page. posted by fenriq at 12:29 PM on February 12, 2005
Flickr apparently has a large contingent from the Emirates. posted by vacapinta at 2:10 PM on February 12, 2005
Apparently if you only have inward links, it doesn't work. Only your links to other people count. Also it ignores groups, which would make the world a lot smaller. posted by smackfu at 2:21 PM on February 12, 2005
I guess it is neat, but I clicked around in this earlier this week and I just don't get what the use is. posted by jonah at 5:41 PM on February 12, 2005
Same thing with me wolfdog. Thought it was kind of funny. posted by deafmute at 6:13 PM on February 12, 2005
Thanks, Jonah, I thought I was the only one to be unimpressed by this. I love Flickr but I don't see that this adds anything to the experience. posted by Tubes at 5:14 PM on February 13, 2005
