FlickrPoet on Flickr Blog

Today I noticed a surprising spike in traffic to FlickrPoet, and after a little bit of digging I found the source for all this sudden interest: FlickrPoet has been mentioned on the Flickr Blog!

It's been interesting to follow the buzz that the Flickr Blog can create - within hours I saw hundreds of users come to the site, mostly from an ever-expanding tweet cloud on Twitter.

The comments in many of the tweets as well as emails to me and comments left on the Flickr API page for FlickrPoet have been great - it's fun to think of so many people spending a few minutes on that site and playing with the creative options of the app. Several people mentioned that they wrote small poems right there on the site - how neat is that!
