LINQ to Flickr

One of my colleagues Mehfuz Hossain developed a wonderful open source project which allows you to query Flickr photos by LINQ, also lets you insert, delete photos directly to/from Flickr. You wonder how to extend LINQ in such an amazing way? It’s easy by writing your own custom LINQ provider, which was not-so-easy until he came up with another handy open source project named LINQ Extender. He did all the expression parsing stuff to ease our pain. Now you can make your own LINQ to Anything using this so easily.

For your heads up on LINQ extenders, here he wrote an article and LINQ to Flickr, open source project is hosted at Codeplex.
