Pictures of success

FlickrExportHow did humanity survive before Flickr? The vast catalogue of images from friends and strangers is one of the best examples of the promise of the social networking aspects of the web, and it’s more often than not an addictive browsing experience.

While you can go ahead and import your photos into Flickr using their own interface, if you use iPhoto to store your photos, I have news for you: there’s a better way, my friend. FlickrExport is a plug-in for iPhoto that not only lets you upload your pictures directly to Flickr from within iPhoto, but also lets you tag them, create photosets, write descriptions, and more.

I used FlickrExport to upload photos from my trip to Ireland and the UK last year; now that I have a Pro-level Flickr account, I plan on using it a lot more. The folks at ConnectedFlow updated FlickrExport to version 1.3.4 yesterday, adding more stable image uploads and a few bug fixes; it’s well worth a look if you use both iPhoto and Flickr regularly.
