Basically it's just to interface to get geotagged photos from several photos databases.

I created this because I was curious of what people were doing at the same place I went to. Now I'm using it also to see pictures of a specific place, I think it beats google image for image search of a specific location.

I hope you will enjoy it and do fun things with it!

Very neat.

How often are the images pulled? Could they be sorted by date? It would be interesting to see the flow of pictures in real time during specific events.

I've had this idea for ages, but other than Twitter (Geus was working on popped.at, but it seems to be down again) I was told that real time was not possible with the other services. If Buetol wants this to have real value then real-time PLUS being able to define a location by polygon or radius for an accurate stream is required.

I don't think it's required (I'm happy with the current state and happily using it), but, yeah, would definitely be awesome.

Polygon/radius is more of a problem interface-wise. For now I'm trying to have the maximum density of pictures (so you always find relevant things) and I think that's what people are looking for.

It's pulled directly from each API (and it's why it take a lot of time often, I do it synchronously).

I want to add sorting and real time in the future (especially for things like concerts, would be so cool). For now I keep adding APIs, I'm trying to add Facebook/Twitter/Vine for now.

I like it! Not sure I'd use it for anything other than to play around with it for a bit though.

Tiny, tiny suggestion: Change "get" to "find". Not only because they don't become my property, but mainly because "get pictures taken by other people" is ambiguous (I first interpreted it as "make other people take pictures for you"). (Oh and on the topic, I think you mean "people" :)

Thanks, should have double-checked the title (just posted it before going to sleep). Definitely it's to "find" pictures, not "getting" them (too much HTTP GETs today).

Sadly, I can't edit the title anymore. Now I have to wait for an admin to clean this up.

Just thought of a use case: looking inside buildings I can't otherwise get into.

It's what I do all the time: Startup offices around the world and government agencies are my favorite.

Nifty app - kind of hard to describe, I had to read the sentence twice to "get it" but once I did it made sense. Could definitely see people paying for something like this especially on a per-photo basis.

Manager - "we need a live / unique photo of X street in Chicago at dusk"

There's an App for getting someone at or near X street in Chicago at dusk to take a photo for you!

Sweet! I've been using it to see photos of food at different restaurants.

A great use might be checking out an event to see what's going on before you go.

Is this a live stream?

It's just a proxy to all the different APIs, no caching.
