I've bit the bullet and set up a Flickr account, both for pics I take inworld as well as RL photos and such.

I'm a complete Flickr newbie, so I'm looking for suggestions on the best way to integrate Flickr and Twitter, as well as other apps that might work well with Flickr and SL.

One thing you might want to do is get a Snapzilla account, (an SLUniverse account) and set it up so that snapshots you send to Snapzilla are mirrored over to your Flickr account.

You could take a look at http://www.flickr.com/services/ .

Ooh, yeah, that's one I was thinking of but couldn't remember what it was called. I set up an SLU account some time ago but I never use it.

Now I need something that will make Flickr talk to Twitter reliably :/

Well, I may try Plurk later, but right now I'm looking to sew Twitter, FB and Flickr into one big happy ball of wax.

Just tried Mobypicture ... less than excited. Talks to my Twitter, does zero with my Flickr (even tho they say it does). Meh.

ARGH, I am really annoyed now.

All I want to do is have a lphoto I post to Flickr appear in my Facebook, anda link to that photo appear in Twitter. Supposedly FB will import from Flickr but I can't get it to do it properly, and I cannot find any 3rd party thing that updates my Twitter with any reliability at all.

Twitpic sucks, BTW. I've been using it for over a week and every third photo or so doesn't get sent to my Twitter. Annoyed.

There must be a way to do this that is reliable and timely - no waiting hours for an update to go through. Flikr, Twitter and FB all give instant gratis to their users, there has to be a way to make them give it to each other.

Have you tried friendfeed? That might do it for you :)
