Kwikr for Flickr

We haven't finished our ambitious Quickr project yet, but I still wanted to download all my Flickr photos at full resolution for use in an iPhoto project.

The solution was so simple it hurts. I needed:

A [key](http://flickr.com/services/) for the Flickr web services API

[Flickrj](http://sourceforge.net/projects/flickrj), a .jar file for connecting to said API

[Kwikr.java](/publicobject/stolen/kwikr/Kwikr.java), about 50 lines of Java code to download my photos

When an open web service like Flickr Services and a powerful language like Java combine, life is good!
