Flickr Set Manager


From time to time, I stumble across something innovative and useful. My recent find was Flickr Set Manager from dopiaza.org. This is something Flickr should have implemented on their own. I have a feeling that Flickr's gone a bit lazy even though they are making money by charging $25 a year for their pro services.

Anyway, back to Flickr Set Manager. FSM is something like "smart sets" for your photos. FSM manages your sets on a daily basis. You can choose the kind of pictures to be included in your sets based on keywords, interestingness, location, tags, text, etc.

I use it for maintaining a set of my most "interesting" photos. I highly recommend this for all Flickr users.

Preview of Flickr Uploadr 3.3 for Mac OS X

A couple of weeks ago, I posted my woes about the current Flickr Uploader (v 3.2.1) and ended up patching it myself. Now, there's a new better maintained version already in Flickr's App Garden. I wish the Flickr staff would test it and make it an official version.

Update: I tried it out and it works very well! I love the photo zoom slider feature on it.
