Flickr Uploadr and Stats

Flickr is a site I doubt I could live without. It rocks my world.

Last month, two updates were handed down that improved Flickr even more.

The first update was to Flickr Uploadr, the first-party upload tool that makes adding images to a Flickr account as easy as snapping the shutter. (Okay, almost that easy.) The new version of Flickr Uploadr has improved handling of uploads, adds the ability to title individual images, now allows re-ordering of images using click and drag, and maintains the other features like tagging and groups that were present in earlier versions.

The second annoucement was huge. Stats! I’ve longed to satisfy my craving for statistics from my Flickr account. Finally! In general, I find the stats provide enough information to keep me happy, but we’re not talking depth like Google Analytics. Still, I think it’s all I’ll need to keep track of traffic to my Flickr account.

Thanks, Flickr! Killer upgrades!

    Zack Yes! I have a friend who just left the LOC who worked as lead on that project. Justin Thorp. Great guy! I was fixing your link, but didn’t have the original and so linked it up to what I thought you were after, which was actually different. :) But I think you’ll like it if you haven’t seen it. :)
