Flickr Turns Two! February 11, 2006
San Francisco, California 94107
The Flickr team hopes you can join us as we enter our terrible twos. Adaptive Path will be hosting our event on their fabulous 2nd floor (2nd birthday, 2nd floor!).
Our friends at O'Reilly are sending us copies Flickr Hacks hot of the press from the printers and QOOP is planning a little surprise.
We hope you can drop by for cupcakes, door prizes, and other fun stuff.
And bring your camera. There appears to be some insane rumour floating around the interweb that cameras are now allowed. What would be the point of a Flickr party without cameras, silly?

Fun fact:
This celebration should coincide nicely with the expected time that flickr photo #100 Million will be uploaded.

I wish I could go! But it conflicts with the Chinese New Years Treasure Hunt, one of the greatest things you can do in San Francisco.
fotogail
oh, drat! i'm volunteering at the S.F. Chinese New Years Treasure Hunt that evening.
stewart
Hmm - that sounds cool? How late does it go? Should we tromp out and take photos of this treasure hunt after? Or is it not that kind of hunt?

I'll be hanging with some peeps for dinner so might be late by an hour or so.

The Treasure Hunt starts at 4:30, the parade starts at 5:30, sunset is at 5:40, and flickr turns two at 7. So a little photography before the flickr event is definitely possible. Best mode of transport: bike.
After the flickr event, all that will be left of the parade is about ten million pieces of trash, and the treasure hunt people will have retired to their hotel rooms to either eat victory cake or pout.

Hmmm take photos of Chinese New Year's Festival, or take photos of Flickr's 2nd year party during Chinese New Year's Festival? Decisions, decisions...

I plan to be there. It's amazing what a company can accomplish in just two years!

I wish I could be there, but it's the same evening that a dear friend is in town & it's my only chance to spend some time with him... have an extra glass of champagne for me!

Do we need to bring Flickr a present? What the heck does one get a two-year-old photo sharing site anyway?
SFbuckaroo
I'm not big on cake but hey, these things only happen every two years and I need to practice my party portraiture. ;)
Amylola
not just cake, people. CUPcakes. mmmmmm....
jdelreal
i find it hard to believe, but i read elsewhere that no cameras will be allowed at this party. tell me it isn't so.
wirehead
Dude, if they aren't allowing cameras, we'll all have material to submit to JPG magazine. :P
jaschu

awfulsara

mdoeff

Sadly I can't make it, as I have an Art Center class to teach here in Los Angeles.
I signed some copies of Flickr Hacks, which will be on hand, and I also had a hand in the QOOP surprise, which I think you folks are gonna like.
Take some pictures for me!

Hey Flickr!
Happy 2nd Birthday from the Great White North!
Up here in Barrie, north of Toronto, Flickr is part of our daily digital workflow - what would we do without you?
Here is hoping you all of your Birthday wishes come true! Have a blast, eat some cake for us and take LOTS of pictures...we will be looking for them!
Happy Birthday!
fuku
yay!

Happy Birthday!!
