Add Flickr search in Windows 7 search scope
Windows 7 Search seems to be highly advanced. In one like now it is possible to index an external resource like Images on other locations i.e. Website, Network locations etc and you can search like you search in your windows. It seamlessly integrates with windows search.
I had seen the first glimpse of this concept when I was working on Microsoft SharePoint where it is possible to add any kind of resource for indexing which I mentioned above. You can even create Search scope and limit the users search area. Now imagine if you can do the same in Windows 7 and restrict what people search in your computer.
Following this model, Long Zheng has created a Flickr Connector for Windows 7 . This connector gets integrated with your Windows and you get a new search box specially for Flickr. You can search the tags, copy the files and do everything you had thought. You can even right click and the set that picture as desktop.
