5 iPhone Tips for Flickr Addicts

I love Flickr, and the iPhone has opened up even more possibilities to interact with it. Here are my favourites:

1. Flickr web application

Flickr on iPhone

The official iPhone client, and the best. m.flickr.com

2. Exposure

Exposure on iPhone

The Exposure webapp has a great feature called “Close To Me” which, predictably, shows you Flickr photos taken close to your current location. Scarily accurate, even on non-GPS iPhones like mine. Grab it from the iTunes Store: Exposure.

3. CameraBag

CameraBag on iPhone

A webapp which applies filters to the photos taken with the iPhone’s crappy camera and makes them beautiful. Grab it from the iTunes store: CameraBag.

4. iPhone screenshots

iPhone OS 2.0 introduced the facility to take screen grabs: Simply hold down the home button and press and release the power button on top of the phone. The screen will flash, and a screen grab will be saved in your photos.

5. Send iPhone camera photos to Flickr

email photo option in iPhone

A very simple way of sending your iPhone photos to Flickr is via e-mail: Flickr allows you to set up a dedicated @photos.flickr.com address for your account. Go onto Your Account on Flickr and click the Email tab. Your Flickr upload email is listed on this page. Save this to your address book and use the Email Photo option to send the photo to this address.

New Flickr Video feature is a Good Thing

24 hours since the launch of the new video functionality on Flickr, and many members are up in arms. I must admit, when I first heard about the idea of video on Flickr a year ago, I was also sceptical. The photo sharing features were very pure and clean, and I thought that adding video to the mix would just end up diluting the excellent features. But video has been integrated into the site in a very clean and unobtrusive way, so I have no problems with it. The fact is that if you don’t like video clips, then you are not forced to upload or watch them. You can just continue to use the site as before, albeit ignoring the videos that your more creative contacts have chosen to share.
