Manage Your Photos with Kflickr
It’s a scene I’ve seen several times at the Central West End Linux Users Group I help run in St. Louis — a new visitor to the LUG brings her busted Windows machine to the meeting, finally sick enough of that OS to install Linux. But first we have to recover whatever data is still sitting on the hard drive (thank you, Knoppix!)
Over the years, I’ve found that most of the stuff on people’s hard drives just isn’t that important to them. Documents, bookmarks, music, videos — they (most of the time) just don’t freak if it’s gone for good. They’re not happy, but they’re not in tears either. With one exception: pictures.
If pictures are unrecoverable, then people get very upset.
A simple backup would have saved those pictures that were so valued. Flickr is easily the best photo-sharing & storage site available on the Web. Flickr has supported an API from its early days that allows other developers to create programs that work with the website. KFlickr is the best app available, on any operating system, for uploading photographs to Flickr.

Samsung, Red Hat to Work on Linux Drivers for Future TechThe metaverse is expected to uproot system design as we know it, and Samsung is one of many hardware vendors re-imagining data center infrastructure in preparation for a parallel 3D world. Samsung is working on new memory technologies that provide faster bandwidth inside hardware for data to travel between CPUs, storage and other computing resources. The company also announced it was partnering with Red Hat to ensure these technologies have Linux compatibility. |
