Flickrvision Is Flickriffic
If you’ve never checked out Flickrvision (or its cousin, Twittervision), take a second. Or an hour: it’s simply mesmerizing.
People posting pictures all over the world, displayed on a global map in real time. It’s fun to take a step back and think about what a truly revolutionary time we’re living in.
It’s good to be an online media cultist.

Both Flickr and Twitter vision are fascinating to watch. Flickrvision shows just what a variety of great photos that site has while Twittervision confirms whatever you think about it. If you think it’s cool, you’ll like the wide variety of things people will twitter about and if you think it’s pointless, you’ll realize what a wide variety of stupid things people will twitter about.

Yes, I find the two “visions” fascinating for different reasons. I’m actually continually surprised at the *interesting* things that are said on Twitter. Of course, there’s lots of chit chat and blather and nonsense, but Twittervision moves swiftly enough that it’s more fun than anything to see conversations spiraling the globe. At times there will be a flurry of non-English Twitters (often in Asia), which really shows you global the web is now!
