See Mike walk! See Mike talk! See Mike shake hands!
Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s office launched an official flickr photo page Tuesday morning, following in the footsteps of the technologically savvy Obama administration’s photostream.
The mayor’s office has been posting pictures on the nyc.gov Web site since the early days of Bloomberg’s first term, but recognizing that “the ways people get information has changed a lot over the last eight years,” the office decided to put high-resolution versions of these shots up on flickr.
The 14-page (and expanding) photostream features several run-of-the-mill meet-and-greet photos combined with some voter friendly action shots, including the mayor traipsing through a subway tunnel wearing galoshes and safety goggles, preparing meals for underprivileged New Yorkers and recycling Christmas trees during MulchFest, the city’s initiative to turn the trees into usable wood chips.
