Who’s linking to my Flickr photos?

While trying to work out why my picture of Morecambe fans at Wembley on 20th May has had over 400 views on Flickr and my picture of the Exeter fans at the other end less than 100 views I stumbled across an interesting trick.

Using Technorati’s search feature, enter your main Flickr photo page URL, in my case www.flickr.com/photos/apenguincalledelvis/.

From the results I discovered a number of things I never knew before, including the fact that a random photo of a lego flower I took last year has found its’ way onto a german blog.

I’ve tried Babelfish but it’s not really helping me understand what this is all about!

This trick also demonstrates why it’s not a particularly great idea to delete your photos from Flickr either (unless you have good reason of course!).

All good fun, but I’m still struggling on why more people are looking at Morecambe Fans at Wembley.

    the blog-text is a bit cryptic – even for germans. i’ve tried to translate it more or less accurate, but i fear my english is not that well-trained as it could|should be…

    houses like lego bricks are passing by. here|there a light crowns the world of toys with the illusion of life. where is my love now? drowned in blood [feel] at the bottom they struggle against stucked birthplaces. early in bloom and the setting density of spring. perhaps a shirt with the yellow shimmering gold of forsythia? literally – that’s what i should blame myself for again and again – they’re human beings behind their curtains, i just don’t know them yet. frustration.
