Thief Steals Computer - Takes Pic - Auto Uploads To Flickr


This just in -

'Last week a number of computers were stolen from our office in Vancouver, BC. One of those computers was a shared iMac with Flickrbooth, an app that automatically uploads photo booth shots to our flickr account, installed on it. Just this morning a friend called to tell us that there are photos of whoever has the computer now in our flickr stream! Obviously the guy didn’t know he was uploading images of himself and his awesome tattoos.'

Not much to say is there...lmfao

If you know this guy - just let either me or the BB team know...lol
Update 28/09/07 - the guy in the photo has handed himself into police and has said that he bought the pc from a friend who bought it from a friend. So far he has not been charged but investigations are ongoing and local police say that he is 'known to them'. The Flickr pics have had almost 300,000 views and god knows how many more on numerous blogs. Any more news - I'll let you know.
