Code.flickr.com: New Flickr Developer Site

Taken from the flickr-blog!

In the last week we deployed new code to Flickr 50 times, including 546 changes by 16 people. We issued over 2,000 new API keys, and third party developers made an average of 704 API calls per second, across 109 public API methods. We added 1 new API method, and updated 7 others. There are approximately 10,000 lines of open source code in our public subversion repository.

And our new developer site, code.flickr.com, is where you keep up with all that.
Open Source Uploadr

We haven’t talked about it much, but our latest Uploadr (the 3.0 branch) is actually a cross platform, open source application built on the XULRunner framework (the same technology that Firefox is built on). If you’ve ever had a wish for the Uploadr to work a certain way, include some particular feature, or just work better, you’ll want to check out Richard’s meaty blog post “Flickr Uploadr, start to now”, checkout the code from SVN, join the Uploadr Group, and start hacking!
Flickr DevBlog

We’ve also got a new blog written by the Flickr developer team for the larger Flickr development community. We’ll be covering changes to the API (look for a post covering video in the Flickr API soon), cool Flickr related projects we discover, writing tutorials on Flickr API methods, and most anything else which catches our whimsy. If you have something you like covered, you can let us know on in this thread in the Flickr API group.

And we’ve got rainbows! And gears!

Photojojo’s PhotoTimeCapsule

f you’ve been a Flickr member for more than a year, you should think about subscribing to Photojojo’s Photo Time Capsule.

“The Photo Time Capsule digs up your photos on Flickr from a year ago, choosing the ones that are most interesting (most views, comments, and faves), then sends them to you a quick email. I’ve been using it for a while, and it’s amazing how nostalgia-inducing getting a little time capsule every couple weeks has been.” — Amit Gupta, Photojojo

Though only a year ago, the photos highlighted in my first email felt like a real blast from the past. Oh, and if you don’t know Photojojo, check out the archives for much photo make and do goodness.
