Description: As a school project, I had the task to write an application to extract the social relations in a web community. The community chosen by me was the Flickr community and I planned to extract all the contacts of some username. Then, for those contacts, extract all of their respective contacts, and so on, until you reach a depth specified in the config.xml file.
So I started to look for an API to access this community.
I found the flickrj API here. Problem is there were quite none examples on the internet for what I decided to do so, after reading the examples provided in the .jar, and searching thru the thin documentation also in the archive, I came with the code I am going to present here.
