Embedded Flickr Slideshows

This is a test post for another cool Flickr feature - a website-embedded slideshow.

The idea belongs to Paul Stamatiou who is a 19-year-old student at the Georgia Institute of Technology. He explains how to get a Flickr slideshow on your website here.

You need to get the Flickr ID with the appropriately named idgetr, then specify which photos you want to show within the blog post. Place a little bit of code within a blog post and the Flickr slideshow is ready to go.

Medical Use

For example, when you describe a case of pneumonia, you can embed the pneumonia images from Flickr.


Note: Images shown above are not tagged with "pneumonia" and represent a variety of clinical cases.

Paul Stamatiou developed a Flickr slideshow widget which can embedded in the blog sidebar and sold it later to a Swedish company for $ 3,000.

Flickr launched an uploader for batch of images from the desktop which is beginning to look more like Google Picasa.
