Posted in Uncategorized Bauhaus Burger Brouhaha: The Devil Is In The DetailsĪt the risk of making a mountain out of a molehill, I’d like to draw attention to an example of the media failing to do its job. Still, they both work.Īnyway, read on and if you have any questions, let me know.Īlso, sorry for the nonexistent posting since December. The second is Flickr Downloadr, which doesn’t cost a cent but is, quite frankly, a bit kludgy in the UI department. The first is Bulkr, an Adobe AIR-dependent app that is available in “Pro” trim for $29. I also tested out two free-to-download third-party backup tools. It works, but it’s kludgy if you want to back up your entire library, as I did. Flickr has a download tool that enables you to select individual photos or galleries for download to a handy ZIP file. The first method to back up your Flickr photos is built right into Flickr. Makes me wonder what else I’ve lost over the years, frankly. But it’s been almost a decade and a half, and in the intervening years I’ve bought hard drives which have died and migrated data to more than half a dozen new computers, so I guess it shouldn’t be a total surprise that I have stuff on Flickr I don’t have anywhere else. Many of the earlier ones I don’t have on my Mac or my iPhone. I’ve been using Flickr for nigh on 13 years now – since before Yahoo bought it in 2005, I know that much – so I have a lot of photos there. I’ve outlined three ways that you can download your pics quickly.
I took what I learned and put it in a new blog post over at Backblaze. So I decided to back up my Flickr library to my Mac.
That made me nervous for two reasons: Flickr is a single point of failure, and Yahoo has problems including massive user ID and password security breaches. At some point, I realized the only copy of some photos I have are on Flickr, the popular photo blogging service owned by Yahoo.
