that people promote awareness of Creative Commons licensing options in Flickr. I agree with him in principle – but there’s a problem. As far as I can tell, a US CC license on Canadian-origin content is probably invalid, in particular since there are CC Canada licenses available. Should Flickr (and Six Apart and others) not provide international customers with an equal opportunity to add such a license?
Update: Anil Dash commented that Six Apart has added such support to Movable Type 3.2.
The rumour mill was right:
Flickr has been acquired by Yahoo. I bet a lot of people are going to be negative about this, but not me. I prefer a wait and see approach. But I will say that I bet Aaron never imagined he’d work for Yahoo!
Amazing Flickr coincidence story
on the FlickrBlog today. A guy went to Tokyo and took a photo of a woman who was herself shooting a photo of a street scene and posted it on Flickr. Someone who knew the woman informed her and she signed up for Flickr and posted the shot SHE was taking, already immortalized by the first guy.

Technorati Tags. Technorati now allows you to search for tags, and responds with appropriately tagged items from Flickr, del.icio.us and with Technorati itself. Amazing stuff.
Nadia has been painting!
This piece, called Chelsea (acrylic on canvas, 24″ X 30″), is but one example of the kind of thing she’s been working on.
