Web 3.0 Multi-Media implosion and convergence

For starters have a look at:

• http://www.flickr.com/photos/thomcochrane/3215225090/
• http://thomcochrane.vox.com/library/post/ted-talks-now-on-iphone.html
• http://thomcochrane.vox.com/library/post/new-media-consortium-emerging-technologies-2009-report.html
• http://thomcochrane.vox.com/library/post/nokia-share-online-services.html

Then consider pixelpipe and how it allows you to converge:

• flickr + picassa + ovi + imagej + vox + juploadr + nokia-photos + many more
  

The latest flickr / googlemaps / yahoomaps geomap geotag mapping craze seems to be GeoShapes and GeoShaping. Which is basically giving a shape to a locality !

Photos in a Frame / Photos on a TV
 

Do you have a (VOX) blog?

If you do, you can connect to it via Flickr. Why? So you can post photos or video you see around here straight to your blog. When you go through the process, you have to connect to your blogging service first (by telling us the URL and your username & password), then you can choose a layout for each post (or create your own if you know a bit of HTML).

Set up your blog

Learn about the Web Services standards REST and JSON by using Google Panoramio and just your web browser !

Using the Google Panoramio API you can display the photos from Panoramio on your own web site. Geolocated photos from Panoramio are great to enrich your maps or illustrate information where location is a important factor (real estate sites, hotels and vacation sites, routes & trails...).

Here's how you'd get some photos of London (X=~0,Y=~51)

http://www.panoramio.com/map/get_panoramas.php ? from=1 & to=16 & minx=-1 & miny=50 & maxx=1 & maxy=52 & size=small (just remove the spaces on either side of each "?" and "&" )

This REST call returns a JSON result set that you can view in your browser and cut and paste photo URLs from :
