After 26 months of highlighting thousands of your spectacular, hilarious, moving, and just generally most compelling photos, The Daily F’log is ready to call it a night. It’s not that we’re running out of pics to bring to your attention, of course; there are thousands of new shots every day that you just have to see. But you see, that’s part of the problem: in those two years, Fotolog has grown by about 400%, from around 6 million members then to over 23 million today. Your mountains of photos are now just piled too high for one person to scale on a daily basis, and come back with meaningful recommendations, connections, and insights that would help you get the most out of Fotolog. The Daily F’log archives will remain open here, though, and I hope you’ll browse through whenever you need some inspiration about your fave subject matter or which fellow Fotolog members you don’t know but now you’ve just gotta keep tabs on.
This final collection of photos is the last in the Fotolog Free Association series, The Daily F’log’s occasional obsession with trying to connect the dots of our random Fotolog surfing both visually and thematically. (It’s kinda long, and the vertical blog format isn’t ideal; it’s best if you imagine flipping through the pages of a book.) If you keep your Friends and Favorites list up to date, add new friends regularly, and most important, browse your hundreds of friends’ FF lists religiously, you’ll come across all sorts of wonderful sights and cross-pollinations from all corners of the world. And as it has for me in collecting these groupings of the way you see the world, the journey itself may just become as meaningful to you as sharing your own photos. It’s still one of the best experiences you can have in the pages of Fotolog.
Heartfelt thanks go to the brilliant brain trust of Fotolog, past and present, for giving me the chance to discover endlessly gratifying personal associations, both with them as colleagues and fellow photo fanatics, and with scores of extraordinary folks from around the world who, through the good graces of Fotolog, have become my friends for life. Here’s looking at you, kids.
