@shiva, Flickr has consistently maintained that they cannot restore user data when after they destroy it. They claim it's irrevocable.
Daniel Rowley, Jaap Willem, Louis Gray and 5 other people liked this
That is why everyone should always have their data in multiple spots
- Shevonne
So they don't keep backups or are they just plain incompetent?
- Ricardo Liberato
My understanding is that it's deliberate. If a user deletes his or her stuff, they don't want to be accused of keeping things around forever, a lá Facebook. A backup system would make it nearly impossible to remove stuff in perpetuity. Frankly, it's a lose/lose situation for them; no matter which decision they make, someone will think it's the wrong one.
- Glen, Bespectacled Elder
(Disclaimer: I am a Yahoo! employee, but I have no contact with or internal knowledge of how Flickr is built or operated.)
- Glen, Bespectacled Elder
Glen, why would a user accuse them of keeping their stuff around if the user didn't destroy it, Yahoo did? Seems to me that maintaining backups of stuff that users did not destroy does not seem unreasonable. It seems irresponsible and arrogant to me to think that Flickr is so infallible that they might not make a mistake when *they* not the user deletes user data.
- Thomas Hawk
I find it absolutely incredible that flickR doesn't back up user data. But maybe they only back up the system itself. Which raises the question - has anyone written an elegant app that enables users to back up their flickR presence?
- Anthony Citrano
you can back up your flickr photos. but that's not really the issue. I've got all my photos anyways. What you lose when they nuke your account is all of the rich metadata around your photos, the tags, the comments, the faves, comments you've made in forums, places that you've blogged or posted the photos outside of Flickr, all of your contacts. The pictures aren't the issue, it's the social metadata around the photos that's lost when Flickr nukes a user's account, a group, etc.
- Thomas Hawk
@Thomas - yes, but that's true with any social media site. As someone else said the other day, it's essentially online sharecropping.
- Anthony Citrano
Maybe Anthony. But I'd like to somehow feel that it's more than that. FF and Flickr are both social networking sites. Somehow I feel safer with my data here than there. I don't think every social networking site has to treat their users that way.

It's more of function of large data. They have so much data they can't backup because there's nowhere affordable to backup to with the write rates they have. So instead they replicate data multiple times to keep safe. When they delete all the replicas it's really just gone and can't be restored. To have a restore function they would need to backup, mark it invisible, or move it to an...

100 percent agree with the locking out being better. Undeleting an account is more trouble than it's worth IMHO. Too many things can go wrong.
- Todd Hoff
Todd it would be *simple* very simple for Flickr to simply turn the offending account private. They already in fact have this capability in the system. That user's content would essentially be invisible to anyone but the original account owner. It would effectively remove the content from the community rather than destroy it. The data is not Flickr's to detroy. There is no logical or...

"Crystal Renn models a Jean-Paul Gaultier creation in 2005. Photograph: Philippe Wojazer/Reuters When Crystal Renn was anorexic, her career as a model flourished. She had had heart palpitations. She was so weak that she fainted if she walked too far, and her bones had poked out sharply from under her paper-thin, taut, grey skin. But she was a US size zero – a UK size two – and the work rolled in. But it was when Renn started eating and expanded to a UK size 16 that her career really took off. In Hungry, her autobiography, described by Nigella Lawson as "a riveting read" and launched on Tuesday at a glittering Manhattan party, the highest-paid plus-size model in America talks of the delicate new dawning of a vogue for women who are "lush and sparkly, with nary a jutting collarbone in sight". Renn says that while "crazy town still loves to gawp at the ultra-slim" there is a growing appetite in the fashion world for "the natural shapes a woman's body takes when it's not being deprived of food"." via This Recording: http://thisrecording.tumblr.com/post...

"This is where real reading comes in -- because it demands that space, because by drawing us back from the present, it restores time to us in a fundamental way. There is the present-tense experience of reading, but also the chronology of the narrative, as well as of the characters and author, all of whom bear their own relationships to time. There is the fixity of the text, which doesn't change whether written yesterday or a thousand years ago. St. Augustine composed his "Confessions" in AD 397, but when he details his spiritual upheaval, his attempts to find meaning in the face of transient existence, the immediacy of his longing obliterates the temporal divide. "I cannot seem to feel alive unless I am alert," Charles Bowden writes in his recent book, "Some of the Dead Are Still Breathing" (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt: 244 pp., $24), "and I cannot feel alert unless I push past the point where I have control." That is what reading has to offer: a way to eclipse the boundaries, which is a form of giving up control."

But who cares, when you are royalty on Flickr for a day."

You can follow all the advice at that link and still not get your shot explored. I think the algorithm for flickr explore is something akin to "Is today an odd numbered day?"

Kurt, it's so hard because unlike deciding to shop at a different grocery store or boycott grapes, deciding to switch carriers to 'send a message' is more permanent. I'd probably get locked in to a 1 or 2 year contract with another carrier, so even if my message worked and Apple and AT&T got better they still wouldn't regain my business for several years, if at all.
- Kevin Fox
It's unlikely Apple or AT&T would be affected by existing customers leaving: they've already paid a good portion of their contract money already, and they are more than made up for in new sales. Bad press, that which would give new customers pause before buying, would be more effective. An FCC investigation, you telling everyone you know how much AT&T and Apple sucks, and news coverage are more likely to effect change than voting with your wallet.

I assume someone at the FCC wants to use GV on his/her iPhone?

What's great about the "seamless" interface, vs. a phone that just self-maintains itself? I guess it's the ability to buy music on a large screen, and have it synced to the device? The few times I've had to use iTunes I have found the sync process a bit annoying, but I clearly haven't fully soaked in the awesomeness.
- ⓞnor
My 'snap' wasn't about breaking the camel's back. I'm just happy that someone in a position of authority is taking Apple to task for their seemingly arbitrary and unhelpful approval process. I care less than most whether GV applications are approved for the iPhone and I actually think it's Apple's prerogative to choose which applications are accepted, but their rules need to be clearly...

Personally this has 2 ugly aspects: retrospectively rejecting apps from the app store and what it could mean for apps like Spotify which clearly compete with one of apple's profit centers.

ephemera assemblyman: The Chicagoan - http://assemblyman-eph.blogspot.com/2009...

"The Chicagoan was a Chicago culture magazine published from June 1926 until April 1935. In the years after it folded the magazine was largely forgotten about until 73 years later when Neil Harris rediscovered the magazine and published The Chicagoan: A Lost Magazine of the Jazz Age. “It’s a crescent-shaped town, 26 miles by 15, along a great lake that’s begun to weaken and recede. No wonder. An unchallenged murder record — a splendid university — hobo capital to the country — railroad ruler, corn baron, liquor king — and the finest of grand opera. Altogether the most zestful spectacle on this sphere.”"

"Like many noteworthy tales, the story of Vintage Roadside began with a road trip. Oregonians Kelly Burg and Jeff Kunkle were on their fourth driving vacation along U.S. 20 through central New York, marveling at the many "roadside ruins" they encountered, when the brainstorm hit. "One minute we were driving along talking about what a shame it was that all the old roadside places were disappearing, wishing there were someone who could do something to save the history," Burg said. "The next minute we had pulled off to the side of the road and decided to quit our jobs." Thus was born Vintage Roadside, a Portland, Ore.-based enterprise that sells T-shirts with graphical depictions of long-gone diners, motels and other attractions from the days of doo-wop, before the interstate highway system sent people whizzing by without stopping."

"On their website ( http://www.vintageroadside.com), Burg and Kunkle invite anyone with the inside scoop to share stories about featured attractions. After posting the Aquarama design, featuring a turquoise mermaid, they heard from a woman who had worked there starting at age 15; she became choreographer of the underwater mermaid show and head "Aqua maid."
