Synopsis:
Expert Flickr developer David Wilkinson guides you through a series of software projects that show you how to build mashups using the popular photo service Flickr. He explains the process of remixing Flickr on your own web site and then mashing it up. Along the way, you'll learn how to take advantage of mashup technologies such as REST, Ajax, RSS, and JSON. Plus, hands on examples will help you gain the skills to design a variety of remixes and mashups that take advantage of Flickr's core services.
