We're a geek culture podcast and blog covering video games, music, food and more. We are the kinds of people who evangelize whatever we are into - it could be anything - but it's usually pretty geeky. We're casual, conversational, NSFW and hopefully interesting. We hope you enjoy it.

Let's get creepy!

Y'know how you can go into Google Image Search and put in the default naming convention for digital cameras (e.g., DSCN0001.jpg) and return a bunch of people's personal photos that they have uploaded without renaming? Or that one website that will pull the last few photos that have been uploaded to various photohosting websites?

Rear Window

Well now it's been taken to the next level with FlickrVision.

FlickrVision is a website that shows a little map of the world. In real time, images pop up on your screen, pointing to their contry of origin mere minutes after they have been uploaded to Flickr. That's right. Almost immediately after you post a picture to Flickr, FlickrVision shows it to anyone and everyone visiting the website.

It's kinda cool but also kinda creepy. You never know what's gonna pop up next.

Credit to a dude over at the PA forums for introducing this to me.
