Why Punimoe’s photo entitled DSC09782 on Flickr is important

A photo on Flickr has got a lot of people talking. It’s the one below by Flickr user punimoe. It was the 4 billionth - that’s photo number 4,000,000,000 - photo to be uploaded to the site. Pretty awesome, eh? Flickr which launched in 2004, was bought by Yahoo! in 2005 and only came out of beta in 2006 has over half as many photos on it as there are people on the planet. That’s a whole lot of camera snappery.

Lads, are we seriously going to Scotland?

The founding Culch.ie Fathers, Rick & Darren and some of us Culchieites hauled off to the Highlands of Scotland last weekend to see the lovely Dave Gorman perform on a decommissioned train carriage by Loch Ness. We had planned on a long rambling post detailing our every movement over the weekend, but we are terribly lazy and at the end of the day a puncture picture says a thousand words. More photos of the trip can be found on Flickr. Read more about Dave’s journey here.
