These are two things that I think would be very cool. They don't really go "together" at all, other than that they both have to do with MC and they both are related to pictures, but I thought of them at the same time so here you go.
First off...
Easy
BrightKite support (similar to the Facebook support) would be very cool. If you haven't heard of Brightkite, it is a cool new "
geo-social network" with a photography focus. It is still in beta, but it is pretty cool, and is supposedly coming out of beta pretty soon. If you sign up for an invite, you'll probably get one within a few weeks via email. The basic idea is that you can take pictures and "check in" with your GPS-enabled cell phone or camera (also many phones can figure out your location based on cell towers, though this is less accurate), or you can always manually type in a location (via address or zip code or whatever), and the pictures will be linked to a physical location on the globe. Then, as a user, you can see what else is going on around you, see where your friends are (if they also have brightkite accounts), and all sorts of other cool stuff like that. From their FAQ:
Brightkite connects people based on the places they visit in the real world. With Brightkite you can see where your friends are, what they’re up to, see what's going on around you, and meet real-world friends.
(If one of the developers wants an invite that they'll actually use, let me know, and I can send you one -- I have a limited number but I'd spare one.)
Secondly...
The
PicLens plugin for Firefox is mega-cool, and it'd be sweet if Pix01 was compatible. Flickr, YouTube, PhotoBucket, and many of the other Image Sharing websites out there already are.
