Flickr Photo Search Extension

This extension searches Fickr(tm) for the \"most interesting\" 20 photos tagged with one or more keywords provided by the user. The results of the search are displayed as small versions of the photos in a grid of 20. It's very fast. Clicking on a photo displays a much larger version of the same photo in a browser tab. No Flickr(tm) login is required in order to view the photo.

This extension is licensed by Flickr to provide photo searches. Such licensing implies no particular endorsement by Flickr(tm) or Yahoo!(tm).

This extension attempts to provide a safe search (i.e., a search suitable for all ages), but we cannot, of course, guarantee that every photo will be suitable for a younger audience.

Note that this software is intended for entertainment purposes, such as to view a bunch of cute kitten photos, or whatever. For serious research one should obtain a Flickr(tm) account and use their search facility.
