JessamynNews: "It’s with a great sense of calm I introduce our newest team member, Jessamyn West. She’s joining us as the new Community Manager of the Flickr Commons program." We should all be so lucky to be onboarded like this.
Additional details: this is a part time gig so I'll still be doing drop-in time and my other stuff.
Main starting point here is to reconnect with the Flickr Commons folks--cultural heritage organizations who were using the tool--who may have drifted away (if this is you, get in touch).
Next work is to grow the community, bring other like-minded organizations on board, help advise on cool new tools and just generally Grow The Commons in all the ways. Couldn't be happier.

@darius Right? Feels so hilarious to say that I'm working for/with Flickr but then again I've always loved the place.

craniac@jessamyn I am so excited to see your vast experience brought to Flickr. It feels surreal to see this amazing combination of chocolate and peanut butter. It feels a little unreal, in fact.
@craniac Thanks. It's just the Foundation (which works with cultural heritage/GLAM orgs) and not the main Flickr but we hope to become a good influence
