Hopeless Geek

Flickr is hosting very short (90 sec) video clips now that you can roll in with your photos. Since the drive for the site is very much still photos, I think they’ve found the right balance for the site by setting the duration to be, as they say, “long photos”.

Since I had to test it out I grabbed the first video clip I could find that I wanted to share and put it up. It took it fine and it looks like a photo in the stream until you move over it or view it. That’s pretty much perfect.
