Photo Sharing
| Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008 | --Sean |
The express purpose of Flickr has always been photo sharing, so it's amazing that it took them this long to finally put up a button to let you do just that.

It makes a lot of other common sharing functions a lot easier, too -- the Contacts box autocompletes, for instance, and the Embed option automatically adds in all of the appropriate image attribution. As a photo owner, you also have all the standard options about disabling embedding and so on. For me, it's somewhat broken for videos, but I assume that'll be fixed soon (EDIT: oh yeah, it's totally fixed).
