We use Flickr to post photos, been using it for a good while to post family photos and nature photography. Our photo stream is here:
On Flickr there’s a thing called being Explored – out of the millions of photos a day that are uploaded, 500 are selected as the most “interesting” (not good exactly, interesting), based on peoples responses to them. Here are the photos we’ve had explored:
We were hanging out in the 490,000 area when we started posting hedgie photos. Two of them got explored and got around 20,000 views each, and brought a bunch more views to the whole photo stream that pushed us over the 500,000 mark.
The Hedgehog pushes it to half a million. Half a million views on flickr and $5 will get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks.
On an unrelated note, this is the first photo we got explored:
Santa Squirrel:
And this is our most viewed ever (66,000 views), which made it to #1 in Explore.
Mouse Raiding the Bird Feeder:
