This is an incredibly useful app, and I’m just wondering how they are making money? Same old question, I know, but Flickr doesn’t make money so how does a subordinate to them think they will?

Just a heads-up. On compfight, if you select the “Tags Ony” button, it switches to “All Text”. We are working on a redesign to help out with the functionality.

Thanks for the plug.

Good find! I am currently using the Flickr siderbar extension to solve this problem.

Dude, have you ever tried PicLens? It’s way cooler than this Flickr browser you’re talking about. It’s actually a plug-in for Firefox so it’s not a separate app, just an add-on. Whenever there’s a page that has a photo pool to it, a play button will appear on the lower left of the pic when you mouse over, sort of like the Flock’s media browser. Click on it and it’ll launch PicLens full screen and I tell you, it’s awesome! The only drawback is you can’t minimize it, it’s either full screen or closed so if you see a pic you like and you click to see it’s page, you can’t resume the browsing you’ve just done. You’ll gonna have start over the first pic. Either way, it’s awesome. Love your blog though, keep up the good work!
