WorldExplorer is a new and exciting way to explore the world through real users’ public photos. It has a visually rich interface displaying the information as tags on a world map with varying fonts to highlight their importance. It lets you move the map around, zoom in, zoom out, search for a place and check out the tags in various regions on the map.

When you hover over one of these tags, photos from that location that are tagged with the highlighted tag will show up on the right sidebar. You can click on the photos to enlarge or to view them on Flickr. Some of the tags have an attached list of additional tags that show up on mouse over. These are additional tags that are important at that location. You can hover over a related tag to see the respective photos.
