Taking Photos at Supernova [en]

[fr] Je suis toujours à la conférence Supernova, où je prends des photos plutôt que des notes (vu l'état).

I’m still at Supernova (gosh, third day!), feeling a lot more human now but still taking more photos than notes. I’m sitting in the second row now, so we’ll see. I might take notes. Do check out my photos, though — as for [Reboot](http://flickr.com/photos/bunny/collections/72157600420715249/ “See my Reboot photos.”), I’ve [organised them into sub-sets](http://flickr.com/photos/bunny/collections/72157600420716687/ “All the Supernova photos, organised in sub-sets.”) and [one general, recapitulative set](http://flickr.com/photos/bunny/sets/72157600415746010/) which contains all the photographs. Here are the sub-sets so far:

Supernova Open Space 7
Supernova 2007 Open Space

Supernova Twit Jaiku Party 1
Jaiku/Twit Party

Supernova Cupcake Party 52
Cupcake Party

Supernova Cupcake Party 29
Just the cupcakes…

Supernova First Day 1
Supernova, First Day (today!)

**Update, Friday 21st**

Please add tags as you look through them (particularly names of people, I really don’t know everyone!) and if you take photos of Supernova, [consider opening up tagging to the whole Flickr community](http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2007/06/20/flickr-open-up-tagging-your-photos-to-the-community-please/).

Flickr: Open Up Tagging Your Photos to the Community, Please [en]

[fr] Permettez à tous les membres de Flickr de taguer vos photos. Moins de travail pour vous et de meilleurs tags pour vos photos!

Tagging one’s photos precisely on Flickr can be a bit of a drag, especially when you upload [over 200 conference photographs](http://flickr.com/photos/bunny/tags/reboot9) full of people you don’t necessarily know. Personally, I go through my photos once before uploading them, and the last thing I want to do when I’ve uploaded them is go through them *again* to add tags.

However, I find myself looking at other people’s photos with interest, and it doesn’t take much effort to quickly add a tag or a name while I’m doing that.

Tagging a Photo

Unfortunately, many Flickr users open up tagging only to their contacts (the default, IIRC). My account was like that for a long time. When I [met Derek Powazek in Lausanne](http://flickr.com/photos/bunny/sets/72157600211444307/), he told me he had opened up tagging to everybody on Flickr, and that people really participated. I decided to try, and it works. **And** you do retain control in case somebody does something stupid (happened to me… maybe once?)

People are Tagging My Photos!

(I could show you pages and pages and pages like that for [my Reboot photos](http://flickr.com/photos/bunny/sets/72157600294706591/).)

So, please, do us a favour (and do me a favour, if you’re taking photographs of me and not [tagging them stephaniebooth](http://flickr.com/photos/tags/stephaniebooth/ “Most of them by me, see?”)).

Go to your [Photo Privacy Preferences page](http://flickr.com/account/prefs/photoprivacy/?from=privacy) (this link will take you there if you’re already logged in to Flickr) and make sure it looks something like this:

Open Up Your Tags To The Community

Then, add tags like [needstags](http://flickr.com/photos/bunny/tags/needstags) or [needsnames](http://flickr.com/photos/bunny/tags/needsnames) to encourage people to help out. And pass the word around to your friends…

Thanks!

**Update, Friday 21st**

I just realised this is not retroactive. So it only applies to the new photos you upload. If you want to change those permissions on your previously uploaded photos (which I recommend!), you need to [go through the organiser](http://flickr.com/photos/organize/). I’m not sure there is a way to do them all in one go.

Photos, Photos [en]

[fr] Je sais, rien d'écrit depuis longtemps (surtout pas en français)! J'ai été bien occupée. Je pars demain pour cinq semaines aux Etats-Unis, mais j'ai un long billet en français qui sera bientôt publié. En attendant, allez faire un tour dans mes photos. J'y ai mis de l'ordre. Commencez par visiter les collections et les albums. Puis cliquez sur les photos présentes dans ce billet!

I haven’t blogged since reboot, I know. I have too much to blog and spent the last 10 days running around in preparation for my departure to San Francisco (for five weeks!) in a little less than 24 hours, now. I’ve got a big blog post in French coming up, but while you wait, here are some pointers to photos I’ve spent some time uploading and reorganizing in Flickr.

Sarzens juin 2007 36

First, check out [my collections page](http://flickr.com/photos/bunny/collections/). Collections are like super photo albums, which contain other albums. It’s a great place to start exploring my photos. I’ve also started making sure that [all my photos were in sets (or albums)](http://flickr.com/photos/bunny/sets/) but I still have a long way to go (around 2000 photos not in sets yet).

Here are a few starters if the links above don’t inspire you:

Lisbon Day 2 - 114

Cuisery 59

Copenhagen 37

When you go on the photo page of the pictures below, be sure to [check which sets they are in](http://www.flickr.com/photos/bunny/559691205/) on the right-hand-side of the Flickr page.

Kitty Pic Caption Contest [en]

[fr] Photos de chats cherchent légendes.

It’s no secret for anybody that I have a thing for cats, and from what one can see on the internet, I’m not alone. [Twitter loves cats](http://twitter.pbwiki.com/Cats), for example. My friend Sarah and I nearly laughed till we cried looking through [The Cat Page](http://www.dropline.net/cats/) last night. Oh, and don’t forget [Dunecat](http://catmas.com/blog/_archives/2007/2/7/2716641.html), [Pursecat](http://www.acc.umu.se/~zqad/cats/index.html?view=1173277999-change.jpg) or [Bedcat](http://www.acc.umu.se/~zqad/cats/index.html?view=1173277999-Iminurbedz.jpg).

Anyway, I took a couple of pictures of Bagha yesterday which clearly deserve captions.

Inspired? Post your captions in the comments, and let’s have a laugh.

PS: a couple of [these](http://flickr.com/photos/bunny/tags/bagha/) (like the [DVD one](http://flickr.com/photos/bunny/288589364/)) probably deserve captions too… take your pick!

Flickr: montrer ses photos privées à qui on veut [fr]

[en] The Flickr Guest Pass allows you to give access to your private photos to non-Flickr users. Read all about it.

Je recommande chaudement [Flickr](http://flickr.com) comme solution pratique, facile à utiliser, puissante et peu chère ([25$/an pour un compte quasi-illimité](http://www.flickr.com/upgrade/)). Le seul problème, c’est que souvent les gens ne veulent pas rendre leurs photos publiques (=visibles au monde entier) mais veulent que leur entourage puisse y accéder.

C’est un problème, car l’entourage en question n’a souvent pas de compte Flickr, et ne peut donc pas accéder aux photos privées.

Maintenant, cependant, fini de se prendre la tête. Flickr offre à chacun la possibilité de créer autant de [Guest Passes](http://www.flickr.com/help/guestpass) qu’il le souhaite. Un Guest Pass est en fait une URL spéciale vers un album Flickr. N’importe qui utilisant cette URL peut voir toutes les photos contenues dans l’album, même si elles sont privées.

Le Matin Dimanche parle de Second Life [fr]
