09/14/2006 | Major kudos to Flickr. For too long I'd been looking for a good way to share photos online, and Flickr makes this simple, attractive, and quick to deliver.
I like this online photo sharing better than e-mailing huge attachments, which not everyone's inbox has the space to accommodate. Downloading photos from e-mail also falls short of giving people the instant gratification of having a good photo collection presented to them all at once.
As with any online photos, copies can be grabbed quickly with a simple right click and "Save As".

08/29/2006 | Flickr is a gorgeous, elegant site and definitely the best photo sharing site out there.
If you like Flickr and haven't tried the Flock browser (flock.com), it's definitely worth a look. You can integrate your Flickr friends photo feeds into the header of the browser, and get alerted when they post new photos. Flock also makes it really easy to batch upload your photos directly to Flickr (it also works with photobucket, i think).

08/29/2006 | I'll admit to being a complete flickr addict. Ever since Corporate Security blocked the site at work my 6 hour a day habit has been pushed back to one. I know there are worse addicts than I am, but you can be sure I am qualified to rate this site a full "13 megapixels".
If you don't know flickr and you ever take any photos then you should go to www.flickr.com right now. Check it out, come back... I'll wait.
In it's simplest form flickr is a photography community, but the endless updates and recent merge with Yahoo allow flickr to be oh so much more.
Flickr allows you to:
store photos
share photos
create photo sets
learn about photography
create groups
join groups
rate photos
comment on photos
make friends
print photos
get exposure
share your expertise
participate in contests
and more!
Its quite simply the best photo community I've found on the web and I highly recommend it.
