Delivr is a new service based on the hugely popular Flickr online photo storage site. Use Delivr to find photos in Flickr databases, and send them as digital postcards. There are over 600,000 photos to search from; here's a selection found using a search of 'coconut grove'. Note although some of these photos do seem to be from Miami's Grove, most of them aren't. But it's a fun way to find some unusual images... or try searching Miami, an even stranger collection of photos (but some of those folks look familiar....). posted by liz at 4:06 PM
