dSLR Dad

Flickr has now integrated Flickr2Twitter support. You can now share your Flickr content either via “upload by email” or by Twittering your content directly from your Flickr page. The following are the how-to instructions for dSLR Dads to Twitter their photographs directly from your Flickr page:

Step 1: Add a New Blog Page

Go to the photo page that you want to Twitter and select “Blog This” and then “add a new blog”.

Step2: Add Twitter as a Blog

Select Twitter as the weblog you want to add.

Step3: Step up Flickr2Twitter

Here you will setup the Flickr2Twitter weblog settings.

Step4: Login and Authorize Flickr

Login to your Twitter account, via the secure connection, and authorize Flickr by selecting ‘Allow’.

Step5: Compose your New Twitter Post

Finally, you can compose your new Tweet. Flickr will automatically create it’s own short Flic.kr URL. For those of you who wish to hashtag your posts, you can find a complete list here.

You can find out all of the nitty gritty details, including how to post via email, at Flickr.
