A new method pas been added to the Flickr API for specifying an ‘essence’ of a geotagged photo, such as ‘Indoors’ or ‘Outside’ (these are the only two currently supported values).
The funny bit however is that the documentation page contains the word ‘geotagginess’ which I think is a great word!

Flickr .Net Screensaver - Release: Release 4.2
Finally released a new version of the screensaver. This is a beta release, but hopefully should fix the problems that people have been having with memory and threading issues.
I’m please to say that the new version of the Jing Project, a tool for capturing video and screenshots of your desktop uses the Flickr.Net library to upload the files to Flickr (I’m assuming on the Windows only version).
As you can see from the screenshot on the right it works a dream :)
After much deliberation I’ve finally decided to move the development of the Flickr Screensaver over to the Codeplex web site. This means that if you’re really sad you can now see the source code for the screensaver.
Also, if you have any problems with it that’s the best place to post a bug report or feature [...]
The latest version of the Flickr.Net API library has been released. Its finally got full support for the Compact Framework in the source code (.Net Framework 2.0 SP 1 and later).
As usual, let me know (hopefully via the Codeplex web site) if you’ve got any problems.
FlickrNet API Library
I’ve finally got around to releasing a new version of my screensaver. It unfortunately doesn’t add much functionality, but it should get around the “threading” error, as well as fix a bug or two elsewhere.
[Download Flickr Screensaver 4.1 (420k)]
As usual, let me know if you have any problems.
Title says it all really, the Flickr.Net API Library has been used to produce a very nice styling and templating demo for the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF). Its called 'PhotoStore'.

Thanks to Nick (heatxsink) the Flickr.Net source code in now included in the latest Mono source code. That means anyone using the latest version of mono will be able to use the Flickr.Net library to interogate Flickr. Wow, its a bit like being included in the .Net Framework - feels weird.In Mono its known as [...]
Beginning Flickr Mashups, the book I worked on as Technical Editor last year is finally available for publishing. It covers a wide variety of Flickr Mashups including mixing Flickr with RSS, Technorati and Google Maps. Most of the code uses PHP and HTML/Javascript with a bit of Perl for command line tools. I've not got [...]
OK, I've written a Flickr Uploader using the .Net Compact Framework 2.0 (SP1).

I don't actually have a pocket PC or similar device so if you have any success, or problems then let me know.
You can download the redistributable for the CF here.
Copy the Cab file to your mobile device and then double click it in [...]
I've created a quick example Flickr.Net web site in Visual Studio 2005, for both VB.Net and C#. There is a simple page that performs authentication, and stores the resulting authentication details in the session variables. There is also a very simple photo album, showing the latest 20 photos from your photo stream. The [...]

A new application using the Flickr.Net API Library has been launched. Basically allows easy and quick uploading of your web cam images onto Flickr! Cool or what. Possibly based on the Coding 4 Fun article that tells you how to hook up a web cam using Visual Studio 2005 it looks like everything I [...]
