presenter mode

We’ve added a new feature to photophlow, allowing room admins to designate a “presenter”.

The presenter can essentially “drive the room”. This means that only the presenter can post photos for the whole room to see, and only the presenter’s searches are seen by anyone else.

Others in the room can either follow the presenter, or browse privately on their own while the presenter leads the rest of the group.

Designating a presenter is a good way to bring focus to a busy room, or to select someone to make a “presentation” during an event. It also gives room admins a bit more power to shape the activity in their rooms.

We’ve also added a link back to the flickr group or flickr user a room represents inside the room itself.

This gives easier access to group discussions on flickr, as well as a way back to flickr if you entered the group via a badge in the group description or flickr profile.

Finally, we’ve created a page with a host of highly educational videos that will explain step by step how to use various aspects of photophlow.

Whether you’re a beginner or an advanced photophlowist, you’ll most likely find something new and helpful on the tutorial video page.

    Amo Flickr, la sua vastità e la sua facilità di integrazione con i vari linguaggi. Ho sperimentato io stesso quanto siano potenti le API di Flickr (anche se qualcosa manca ancora) ma quando vedo certe cose non posso fare altro che rimanere basito e l…
