Last Friday I had the opportunity to hang out with Thomas Hawk. One of the most popular photographers on Flickr, and one of the founders of Zoomr. It was a facinating conversation, and I can honestly say that I've never met any photographer who shoots as much as Thomas. He shoots every single day, between 100 and 500 shots on average! Add to that the fact that he maintains a very popular and active blog, runs a company, has a day job, and is also a Dad and it becomes a mystery how he finds the time to do all of this stuff. Thomas tells me that he's "always online".

Check out the video for some great tips on how to increase your popularity on Flickr, how Thomas manages to keep all of those images backed up, and more. This was a great chat.
