Hiya! Thanks everyone. This is a part timey gig working with the Flickr Foundation helping bring people back who may have been dormant for a long time or could just use the help of a dedicated person. The trick will be that we can't fix/adapt (right now) nearly anything from Flickr.com (even though the SmugMug people are lovely, they're just doing their own thing) and so part of the gig is figuring out what can and can't be done and how to make it all work well. I'm just super excited to get to work with all these cool cultural heritage organizations and get to spend more time where I already hang out,looking at all their neat digitized stuff. If people want to see what's already there, check it out.
@jessamyn if you could just whisper in someone's ear when next at the office cooler 'we want a "Collections" tab between "Photos" and "Faves" on our main pages :)'
best of luck there, the cultural heritage angle is making me very jealous
@Argie I have zero input into any of the back-end Flickr code, so as much as I share your feelings (and have a long wishlist of my own) I also want to set expectations that I can't do a thing about anything on Flickr.com that isn't something the Foundation directly touches and even then probably not.
