Dave Winer last night released a public beta version of his newest offering called FlickrFan. Without access to a Mac (?), all I can see (at the moment) is a screen saver app for the Mac with a social twist (it lets you subscribe to Flickr images via RSS and share your images with the Flickr community).
A lot of people have already said that this is no big deal, and I agree. However, I also think its only at v0.0.1… I think this is just a first pass at some sort of narrowcasting to the living room – “an attempt to turn your HDTV into a platform that embraces the Internet“.
