jesolem··on Startup Mapillary Is Turning Crowdsourced Images into a 3-D Virtual World

jesolem··on Mapillary Is Building a Crowdsourced Street View with User Submitted Photos
As an OSM contributor you might be interested in the fact that every photo is immediately available in the iD editor for everyone to use. (JOSM will happen one day too) The American Red Cross is taking photos on Mapillary for Missing Maps, etc.

As a regular person you get a service for sharing geotagged photos of places, available under CC BY-SA.

My addition to these good points

* Skip TV. Lots of people spend hours every day in front of a TV, I don't. I watch in dedicated bursts and usually that means a movie per week. * Books. I love reading books but do that on long flights, on vacation or when I have real "off time". * Sleep. I go to bed when I'm really tired, never before. Lots of people go to bed before they are tired which is insane. * Kids. Spend dedicated time. I drop them off at school every morning, spend some time before/after dinner every day. * Weekends. Try not to work weekends and again have dedicated time with kids and family activities. I do weekend work in short bursts when needed and save the rest for recreation.

To clarify: * Outgoing license is CC-BY-SA. "Mapillary Photos are available under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License (CC BY-SA 4.0)." from http://www.mapillary.com/legal.html * OSM has an explicit right to take data under their contributor terms http://www.mapillary.com/osm.html * The incoming license is per Mapillary ToS because we want to be able to use the photos for 3D/street view/recognition/etc

Also we do give attribution to photographers under every single photo.
