Search a stream for comments
 |
This hack might be obvious, but I find it useful.
When I want to search the comments of an entire photostream, I use Google.
For instance to find all photos in my stream that have a "wow" comment:
site:flickr.com inurl:photos/earth2marsh wow
Now if it could return photo thumbnails, that would be even better! (mmmm, greasemonkey)

As this is a great idea, I did the greasemonkey script to display the thumbnail. It works everywhere (almost), not only on google:

You might want to add del.icio.us to the excluded pages since, as you point out, they already do that because now del.icio.us pages have 2 thumbnails of the same thing.

This is not 100% precise, but could find comments made by one user:
site:flickr.com+inurl:photos/earth2marsh+%22Petri%20Tuohimaa%22+says
You can replace the name after "photos/" with your username and the "%22Petri%20Tuohimaa%22" here with the name of the user you want to look for comments.

Is there a way I can search flickr (not just individual photostreams) for specific types of comments by one user? Or even tags?
For example, I was a member of the deleteme group from some time and I want to search for a specific "saveme" "deleteme" comment or tag but I can't remember who's photo it was and of course it is no longer in the pool. Most tags get deleted after the photo is removed from the pool so comment search would be better. If I could get a list of all the photos I've put that comment on and narrow it down by including some of the other words I'd used in the comment perhaps it would be easier to find? By searching my "comments you've made" page?
Sometimes it is hard to locate a comment that was made in a discussion thread as well, especially if you are not sure which group it was made in. If I could narrow it down to comments made by me it would be easier to locate.
