ok I am sure we've all tried to get the flickr screencast from the main ruby on rails site working. I followed along and tried to get it up and got nothing...
When i hit search i get an error message saying "Invalid API Key (Key has expired)". I've searched all over the internet trying to look for the answer to this problem with no luck. Any help you can offer would be appreciated..

the crappy flickr gem needs some love.
Soo what do i do? whats a better way?
the flickr gem is fine. you need to get your own API key to replace the expired one which is hardcoded into the flickr.rb file. They don't call it "simple" for nothing.

The flickr.rb file should be located in the following or similar folder
lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/flickr-1.0.0/

I change my API key in that file and now works perfectly
thanks
