A Random Selection of My Faves Hosted on Zooomr

One of my most favorite things to do is to go fav crazy on Zooomr. I’m constantly amazed at the quality of work that all of our photographers put out day after day. Thanks to all of you for sharing your great work and thanks for all the favs on my own shots.

One of my favorite ways to fav is to go fav diving where I go through other people’s favorites to find more myself. Raoul has some amazing picks in this regard. Thanks to all and share the love.

Keukenhof Hosted on Zooomr

I was pretty blown away recently looking through a series of photographs that Prophead took over in the world’s largest garden at Keukenhof in South Holland. You can check out his set of images here. One of the best flower sets I’ve seen in long time. To learn more about Keukenhof, check out its wikipedia entry here.

College Humor’s Jakob Lodwick Hosted on Zooomr

While we’re still undecided on if Zooomr should have video functionality, there are some pretty clever video sharing applications to try out there.

Lately, you may have seen me post videos from my newly created Vimeo account — and let it be known that I couldn’t be happier with the service.

Thomas Hawk and myself had the pleasure of meeting one of its creators (Jakob Lodwick, above) recently, which makes it even more special.

While sites like YouTube do a good job with video hosting and services, it’s always refreshing to see developing competition that goes well beyond the mark.

If you get a chance, check-out Vimeo and give it a whirl — not only is it promising, it also delivers.

Enjoy,
