How to view the original size of a Flickr photo when the All Sizes option is missing?
When you’re browsing through pictures on Flickr, you should have seen an ‘All Sizes’ option above photos. Clicking on the ‘All Sizes’ option takes you to a page that has links to the photo in various sizes, including its biggest version.
However, some photos have restricted permissions and have the ‘All Sizes’ option missing or disabled and it’s not possible to directly retrieve the original version of the photo.
Embed RSS feeds quickly in your site with Feed Source
A month ago, I talked about using the Google AJAX Feed API to insert RSS feeds in your website. I happened to stumble upon Feed Source recently which is a quite a nice tool that you can use to insert articles from an RSS feed on your blog or website.

Just go to the site, specify the URL, customise the colours, copy and paste the code, and you’re done. It comes without any frills or bells – just a no-nonsense tool that does its job.
And of course, it’s possible to embed RSS posts using a bit of PHP coding if you’ve got a blog running on WordPress.
