And now I feel bad! I was grumbling about SmugMug (and MySpace) in my blog, ... the story about private photos being brute-force discoverable... but I should've asked your side of the story first. So my apologies there. Maybe we just disagree about whether predictable 'private' URLs are a problem; but I should've asked before grumbling in public. Re FOAF, XFN etc., do you have any plan to allow users to tag "this picture depicts this person" more explicitly than using ambiguous tags. That would be cool for extracting social graph data based a bit more on the real world, and less on what people feel obligated to say. See old prototypes over here. http://rdfweb.org/2002/01/photo/ ... it could probably be built on top of tags (and in Flickr, machine tags). Facebook have similar construct too, and accessible to their own APIs. Hey, this is cool :) Sorry, only just noticed it.
