An amazing collection of high fives caught in mid jump on Flickr.
Flickr user Drbucket comes downstairs to find his pup attempting suicide. Taking “play dead” a little too far, don't you think?

With the Tiananmen Square anniversary coming up on June 4, China has blocked Twitter, Flickr, Hotmail, and other sites.
Rosie Hardy and Aaron Nace live 4,000 miles apart, but they're always together in the pictures they take. [Editor's Note: Which is kind of like the real thing, except more PhotoShoppy. Click through for more on their adorable story and their inexpensive, arty coping mechanism.]
I have no idea what's going on here, but it's seriously creeping me out. …And making me hungry.
They get it! The White House is now on Flickr and you can check out insanely hi-res images of the Prez and the rest of the gang just hanging out.
I'm a sucker for venn diagrams. And this set by Frank Chimero is just awesome. The one about the internet and cats? No truer words have been spoken. Click the image for the full set.
This is where we keep all of the internet's NSFW content. In London, of course. It's safer there.
Some Flickr Pool fun with iPhoto — whose facial recognition feature might need some work. You see, there are faces EVERYWHERE: from cookie dough to pants to elevator buttons. Maybe they should work with Faces in Places?
COME ON DOWWWNNN! We've got Tron suits, circuit board ties and Yelp review shirts galore!
An intrepid historian/photographer finds photos at the Library of Congress in Washington DC, prints them out then scouts out the location where the original photograph took place. He then holds up the vintage photo against the modern backdrop.
No hard feelings, OK? Here's cake with my resignation statement. In case you can't make out the frosting script, it reads: “Dear Mr. Bowers, during the past three years, my tenure at the Hunters Point Naval Shipyard has been nothing short of pure excitement, joy and whim. However, I have decided to spend more time with my family and attend to health issues that have recently arisen. I am proud to have been part of such an outstanding team and I wish this organization only the finest in future endeavors. Please accept this cake as not notification that I am leaving my position with NWT on March 27. Sincerely, W. Neil Berrett.”
Warning: Always bring enough money to use the toilets in Vietnam or you may never come home! That being said, I'm up for the challenge of beating three hours. I can hold out at least half a day. Bring it on, Culi Cafe.

A clever feature by the team at Flickr that draws videos from groups of the same name and places them in order by the time of day at which they were shot.
Flickr tries to be helpful, which is nice. May have been a little bit too presumptuous there, though.
Today Flickr celebrated the 5-year anniversary of its launch in 2004. In honor, this is the oldest surviving picture, which was uploaded by Cal Henderson on December 15, 2003.
Demographic info for four major social networks may make you rethink how you're spending your time online.
Tech Buzz A Flickr video group with a simple aim: Shoot a video of your day, edit it together using only the original sound and no effects, and upload it the next day. These are mostly mundane, but also somehow compelling. There's just something nice in seeing what other people do for lunch.
