Flickr videos now available for Apple iPhone and iPod touch
Friday, December 05, 2008 - 10:15 AM EST

Shanan Delp reports via the official Flickr Blog:

Over the last year we’ve seen an explosion of mobile devices uploading to and browsing Flickr. It’s rapidly becoming the norm for our members to use a camera phone to share their immediate world with others, and a mobile browser to keep track of friends and family."

Today we’re releasing several upgrades to m.flickr.com. If you’ve got a smartphone with one of the fancier new mobile browsers, you’ll experience a completely new version of our mobile site, one that’s built around the things that are most important to you when you’re on the go.

First, the sexy part — you can now view Flickr videos on your mobile phone! Videos uploaded from today forward will be immediately viewable through our mobile site. As of today this particular feature is available to iPhone and iPod Touch users only, but we expect to rapidly expand the number of devices that we support.

The activity stream now has more information in it, all synched to the settings you specify on the main Flickr site. For the first time you can now comment on, and favorite, photos from your mobile phone. And it’s also wonderfully simple to add, find, and manage your contacts.

Emailing photos from your mobile phone to Flickr also gets a little easier. We’ve made your secret Flickr upload email address a cinch to find and use. Just enter it in your address book under the name “Flickr”, then email us whenever you shoot something interesting.

Finally, if nothing’s happening in your part of the Flickrverse, we’ve made it very easy to browse the most interesting photos of the day, or do a search of the 3 billion+ photos that live on Flickr.

My iMac has been up for 101 days now. Just goes to sleep at night.

Ron, I update my mac and have to restart to finalize the installs.
Although, I have no doubt we could go on for months without a restart.

I update all the time. I guess it's the Time Capsule that shows my uptime.

Damn this pisses me off! I want the site the way it is on my desktop!!! These jerks are dumbing down the sites because the rest of the cell phones have crap browsers.
