Mine was, inexplicably, or ironically, one of my feet. I took it in San Diego where I was attending O’Reilly’s ETech conference in 2005. Flickr was quite the topic of conversation.

This was back in the era where your account/profile had to be approved before you could actually post visible photos. Fortunately one of the Flickr dudes was a few rows back from me in the main hall and was on the IRC backchannel and sorted it out for me right quick.

In the vein of the recent meme of “what was your first Twitter tweet?”–what was your first Flickr post?

You can see "notes" at the Flickr version linked above. This shot isn't what I want. I want to show my books. This fails at this because all of my bookcases are cut off. But anyway. It gives me ideas.
