I came across one of the coolest sites today that I have wasted a lot of time watching so far. It is called flickrvision. One part Google Maps, one part eavesdropping, 100% fun; flickrvision lets you watch users uploading photos live. The map view shows where the user is uploading from and a small snapshot of the photo is displayed over the location. Clicking on the photo reveals a larger version in the center of the screen while map continues to update in the background. Clicking on a user name takes you, as you might expect, to the users profile on flickr. It is a pretty simple concept but quickly becomes wildly addictive.

I just sit back and watch pictures getting uploaded from everywhere. I also wonder if people realize that the world can watch while it happens. I saw a few pics that may not want to be shared. Oh well will have to think about that the next time I upload.

Check this site out and I know you will waste a lot of time staring at it.
