Retrievr - search by sketch. ImgSeek. Where have all the Vo-wels gone...long time passing. Geobloggers - geoblogger users kicking ass since May 2005. Mappr! Where It's At. Where it’s at Photos from flickr.com (“almost certainly the best online photo management and sharing application in the world”) are often tagged with information that can be used to make educated guesses about their locations in the world. Mappr uses this data, which is provided by Flickr users and made available via the Flickr API, to place their images on a map.

Images in Alaska Starting late 2004, we began collecting images from Flickr and comparing them against a U.S. Mappr was built to explore the idea of a collaborative mapped photo space, without having to wait for cameras to come with automatic GPS locators in them. Mappr has been featured in publications such as Barron’s, The Wall Street Journal, and Peter Morville’s recent book, Ambient Findability. Note: As of 2007, Mappr is no longer processing images from flickr. Images on Flickr tagged with “route 66” Images tagged with “postcard” The Great Flickr Tools Collection.
