Flikr?

How are you all tagging your stuff on Flikr? I'd like to use the most common Dragon Con tags.

I'm using dragoncon and dragoncon2010.

[snappingbonez.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm using dragoncon2010 as well.

Your icon is the awesomest thing that ever aweseomed out of the primordial awesome soup.

Also I've been tagging dragoncon and assumed the upload and photo taken date would help.

I have been using dragoncon and DC2010; I may go back and add dragoncon2010 as well...

[keireland.livejournal.com]

Am using "dragoncon" as well

[chelfie14.livejournal.com]

mines tagged DragonCon and the set is DragonCon2010

[siredgar.livejournal.com]

multi-tag please. Use:

DragonCon
Dragon*Con
2010

Those seem to be what most people are doing from what I can tell.

no special characters in tags for me, but i've got the other two.

[siredgar.livejournal.com]

The only drawback to that is if you do a search on Flickr for "DragonCon" and "Dragon*Con" you get different results. Not a big deal but some folks might miss your pictures if they don't think to search on both :)

[sparr0.livejournal.com]

My pictures go in the relevant groups as well, so they will see them there. I submit tagged photos to a lot more places than just Flickr, and like my tags to be consistent, so no special characters for me.

[mhaithaca.livejournal.com]

I've tagged as "Dragon*Con" and "DC10." If you follow the tags, "Dragon*Con" = "DragonCon" = "dragoncon," but that's not true if you're searching. I may add "DC2010" to mine.

[zarathud.livejournal.com]

The standard is supposed to be both dragoncon and dragoncon2010 (or whatever year it is). Unfortunately there is little consensus, which makes searching a bit of a hassle.

I used DragonCon

I will suggest that anyone doing a search on Flickr include "-escalator" in the query. Some dude stood next to the escalator in the Marriott and took a million boring photos and posted them all! Must have seemed like a cool idea, but... not really.

I'd also filter out "-3D" -- someone uploaded tons of photos taken in 3D -- not much fun to look at unless you have 3D glasses!
