Tweet your Flickr Photos

Twitter and Flickr are the major players in their own field. But, We used services like TwitPic to share photos on Twitter as it was not possible to tweet flickr photos directly. Now, Flickr adds support for Twitter officially.

If you have photos on Flickr account which are to be share on twitter then you will need to authorize Twitter account from Flickr to tweet it at the same time using the exclusive short URL Flic.kr ! It is not very similar to Twitpic where you use Twitter username and password to sign in and share.

After authorizing the Twitter account, users will get a ‘Blog This‘ Button that will post photo with a custom twitter update from Flickr account itself. For more details on Twittering the Flickr photos, refer official blog post.

Flickr account holders can share their images in Twitter directly using custom Flic.kr URL. Images or videos can be also shared via Mobile by sending it to a custom 2Twitter email address. This has been one of the much demanded features of Flickr users addicted to Twitter.
