Flickr: How a Bright Star Changed the World of Web Applications with Peter Merholz and Jared Spool
"Back in January we had planned to have Stewart Butterfield, co-founder of Flickr, speak at our Web App Summit. Sadly, events conspired to force Stewart to Europe at the last moment. In his stead Peter Merholz and I got together to lead an analytical interactive discussion on what makes Flickr such a success in the Web 2.0 space, and as a popular destination in general. What makes it such a draw? It can’t just be AJAX.
» What tools does Flickr use to foster its community?
» Does the service have a personality?
» How is it different from competing sites?
» How does Flickr invite you to discover new tools?
» How does the app leverage its API to increase its values?
Flickr is often mentioned in our individual talks for just a few minutes. It was really interesting to collaborate and dig deeper into the app and explore its many layers of innovation. I hope you enjoy this recording as much as I enjoyed the session." (Continued via UIE Brain Sparks) [Usability Resources]
