This is awesome. Puts Twister to shame.

It's an interesting idea. I definitely like it -- excited to see if it works.

This is badass. Best of luck to everyone.

Well, it looks like I'll be getting 10 minutes of work done I didn't plan on doing.

Don't be a jag.

There is a Quora question for this well, where more (helpful) comparison information might be posted in the future.

Also, pretty sure this is Satoshi. Not entirely sure. First transaction in 2009, 10 days after the network was brought up.

A lot of people are trying to fix this right now. A lot of people think that most API's, even though guided by Oauth or Oauth 2.0, are easy to implement, and it's a huge misconception. So many of the API's have quirks and issues all the time, making it incredibly time consuming to implement, learn, and keep up to date.

Making the process easier is a huge need right now. There are a lot of apps, and it's all becoming more separated. People want to integrate, and it's a pain in the ass to integrate quickly and cleanly.

EmergentOne and Apigee are helping people create standard API's.

Zapier and IFTTT are giving you a UI to meld them together.

Cloudsnap, Singly, and Webshell are all doing what you're describing, each with a different target of apps. Singly and Webshell are seemingly more social, whereas Cloudsnap is more related to business apps.

And of course, YQL, which has been around a long time.

Thanks Treeder!

http://pi.pe/ might be able to handle those transfers. I haven't looked into it too much and I'm not sure what the experience is like, but I have seen it posted several times for that type of request. Might want to check it out.

It really all depends on your preference. One of the great things about Flickr was always their ability to handle the full resolution and large photos, and the ability to keep the angles and crops you wanted, whereas Instagram resizes them to down and crops them all for you, losing the original photo.

With Flickr's lack of mobile support, they've always had somewhat separate target audiences. I'm guessing that in the future, these targets will become more aligned with the way both companies are moving.

Definitely. One of Flickr's biggest problems was it's lack of mobile support, and now, their iOS app is awesome, so I can only imagine good things from them.

Both of them do support location, but we weren't able to get this done within our timebox today. It's something we'll look to add in the near future, and moving tags over, as well. Sorry about that.
