USEFUL RESOURCES FOR SOME, USELESS RANTS FOR OTHERS

Just Discovered: A Quick Way to Create Flickr Maps

I found this application via the Digital Photography School last night. It uses the geotagging data from your Flickr photos to quickly generate an embeddable, interactive Google Map for a set of photos. It’s a neat little app for photographers who want to show where they’ve been. Here’s a map I just created for a set from our trip to Charleston earlier this year:

Two small complaints/would-like-to-have’s:

  1. The embed code uses iframe, which doesn’t play well with WordPress or many other CMS editors. I had to download a plugin to make this work on my blog. An alternative embed code would be nice.
  2. Instead of picking small, medium, or large for the map size, it would be nice if you can just enter a map width (especially since you can already enter the map height).
