In this post Lisa Newton from Travelin’ Local and MLAPA looks at a great new service that merges Flickr with virtual mapping. There’s a great new site I recently found, that makes the process of merging Flickr images with virtual mapping, much quicker and easier; and takes the entire process to the next level. Although I’m a big fan of Flickr , for a long time one of its major drawbacks was that I couldn’t embed Flickr maps. That was then, this is now; you’re able to easily create embeddable maps by combining Flickr and Map Flickr , a “powerful tool to create an interactive map with geolocated images on it using the Google Maps and Flickr API.” First things first, to use Map Flickr , you have to be a Flickr member first. Indeed, DPS recently had a wonderful new beginner’s guide to Flickr , so I hope you’ve already joined

Combining Map Flickr and Flickr allows for easy Online Mapping
