@johtso @internetarchive @Flickr Hi - it's not up to the Flickr Foundation to share user-level commentary in a public forum (or anyone, really?) — but we did learn last week that the Flickr team is in communication with the account holder.

@internetarchive @flickrfdn @flickr Any ideas why the Internet Archive Book Images Flickr account has suddenly been made private? This resource is treasured. flickr.com/photos/interne…

@PublicDomainRev @brewster_kahle @textfiles Hi again - the company has let us know they're in touch with the account holder. 👋

cc @brewster_kahle @textfiles

None of the 5.3 million Internet Archive book images normally housed at Flickr are available. Any idea what is going on @internetarchive @flickr @flickrfdn ? flickr.com/photos/interne… cc @nightgolfer

@PublicDomainRev @brewster_kahle @textfiles Hi - No action on that account from here. We do know sometimes that account can be slow because it's so huge, but not sure if this is that. We'll ask the .com.

Strong recommend: The Third Information Crisis by Naomi Alderman, available on BBC Sounds: bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00… "We're in the middle of an information crisis."

Tech Lead @alexwlchan on a little open source utility we've made which parses Flickr URLs (to figure out if there are photos to see): flickr.org/the-surprising… We are already using this library in two other tools: flickr.org/tools too! 🔧🔥🪝

Today we're publishing a new report, "20 Years of Flickr: Archiving the Living Environment" by @ashleymaerie. It focusses on the value of Flickr, risks to its longevity, and suggested practices to adopt as we move forward with our mission. Thanks Ash! flickr.org/report-archivi…

If you're voting today (I know #TamilNadu is) can you pls share an image of your inked finger below? I'm making a thing. Pls RT!

We've been waxing and waning about finding ways to look back over Flickr's 20 years and beyond to surface peaks of photos taken same time+place... Are you a data nerd who might be curious to try this with us? Say hi!

Love this Eclipse gallery on Flickr, curated by NASA, shot by Flickr members. flickr.com/photos/nasahqp…

Thank you @MrsAudiac (Jenn Phillips-Bacher) for being our very first Research Fellow ever. It was wonderful to have you join us, you are a pleasure to have around, and your work was deeply useful. Onward! 😍🥳🌸 flickr.org/on-being-a-res…
