Week 3, Thing #6, Mash-Ups and 3rd party sites

I particularly like Montagr which creates photo mosaics from photos found on Flickr. Flickr Montagr was created by Billy Fowks and makes use of the Flikr API and Macromedia Flash.

I would love to investigate making posters out of these montages. For the time being I have discovered that it is a grand way to scan a lot of pictures on a theme very quickly without too many clicks: you just run your mouse across. You can select individual images in the mosaic. You can e-mail individual images.

I notice that at the bottom of the page you can find links to commercial sites who will do montages or posters for you out of your own pictures.
