Thing 6: Flickr Mashups

I checked out some of the Flickr mashups, particularly the calendar and trading card applications. They weren't as rockingly awesome and I hoped they would be. My pictures kept turning out very pixelated and my trading card printed out teeny tiny. I tried to find a way to customize it and/or edit it more, but I couldn't find a way to do that. There were a lot of cool applications to use though. Facebook does some similar stuff with their site, allowing users to create applications. Even though all the applications aren't great, it really allows for a lot of creativity among users and eventually you can find a lot of content that fits well with your interests.
