The MIX 10k Contest asks, "What could you create for the Web if you only had 10 kilobytes of code?" ... and offers some great booty to the winners: the Grand Prize is a pass into MIX, 3 nights at the Venetian, and a $1500 Visa Gift Card!

Given the possibility of such fortune and glory, I couldn't pass up making an entry into the 10k. I created a little game reminiscent of Kaboom! but with a little twist: it uses the FlickR Public Feed to get recent photos with certain tags. The object is to catch all of the falling photos into your photo album. The neat thing about using the FlickR photos is that they do not increase the 10k size since they're provided from a web service. Also, the FlickR photos make the little game dynamic because they change constantly.

Shameless Plug: I NEED YOUR VOTE!
Go to the submission page and Rate it Up! The community prize is based solely on community votes.
