24 Hours of Flickr

Good things, Photo, Projects Add comments

I first participated in the “a day in the life of…” group on Flickr two years ago. It was a great experience, and the created some fun posters — part collaborative art; part social networking experiment. Now Flickr has officially sponsored their own similar group.

24 Hours of Flickr will hold their own DILO-type event this coming May 5th. Anyone can join, and by posting your photos (which must be taken on May 5, 2007), you implicitly agree to having it published in a special 24 Hours of Flickr book that’s been planned.

Of course, it’s great fun, but especially if you join in. Grab your camera, join the group, and get ready to post some pictures from your day.

Great, Sarah and Xerraire. Look forward to seeing your photos! I should add that you don’t have to upload your photos on May 5th — you’ll have until May 21st to upload them — but you do need to TAKE them on the 5th. Which is not the same as “taking the 5th” and certainly not the same as drinking a fifth (although being a veritable national drinking holiday in the states, I’m sure there will be plenty of that, too).

Just wondering if this is the Jeff Hester that grew up in North Dakota–like Bismarck

Julie (Harry)? no, I didn’t grow up in North Dakota. Indiana, Ohio and California, yes. North Dakota, no.
