Flickr has added some new sharing features to enable users to share images on various other social and publishing services. Now with a single click a photo from your Flickr account can be shared on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Blogger and even WordPress. A notable absence can be Google Buzz but then who really uses Buzz?
Earlier the photos could be shared only via email.
An interesting but critical addition for the new sharing features on Flickr is how it also allows sharing photos to Blogger and WordPress blogging platforms.
It has correctly identified that blogging platforms will only add to Flickr’s visibility if allowed to share images.
Initially we could share photos from Flickr to Facebook by synchronizing them.
I still think Flickr has got this very basic feature quite late in the day. Is this because a general lack of innovation? Over the last two years, I cannot think of anything cool regarding features when it comes to Flickr.
If you do use Flickr a lot, do check out these new sharing options and drop in your comments.
