I have spent some time (way too much time) fooling around with Flickr mashups.
Here's a cute one, called FlickIt which generates thumbnail images based on a word. In this example, I set the image size to 85 and the query (or subject) to "book":
Images from FlickIt!
FlickIt "is the simple yet extremely useful web service for dynamically generating thumbnails of anything."
The images are somewhat random and change with each screen refresh, lending a certain air of unpredictability but a nice feeling of dynamic content.
Another fun mashup is depictr which combines photos from FlickR with song lyrics.

I'm enjoying reading your 23 things blog.
Thanks for the link to Flickit. I can't see much of a real use of it right now, but got a big kick when I typed in a thing and one of my photos from Flickr appeared.
Thanks- I also am enjoying reading other blogs, and am learning alot-for instance, that Flickr badge over there, and the Meebo chat widget. Your comment has reminded me to leave comments- really, that's a big part of the fun.
