Twitter Search for Flickr photographs

A new feature, which will allow users to post Flicker photos on their Twitter accounts, has just been unleashed by Yahoo.

You need to enable Flicker as an approved application for this new Twitter2Flicker feature with which you can tweet under your username.

After doing this, you have to click on the link above the photo in which you are given an option to tweet it. This tweet appears in the shortened URL of flic.kr.

There is a large number of users on the Photo sharing site Flicker and the use of the site has been made even bigger with the fact that some other sites can also make the use of its data via API.

Yahoo seemed to leave no stone unturned to make its sites not like walled garden and also trying to work in a better way with other web properties.
