Send Mobile Content to Flickr

Posted in Applications at 9:17 am by Dan Coulter

Stephen Rogers just announced a beta trial for a new Flickr app for camera phones on the Flickr API mailing list. From the email:

We’re developing ShoZu, a new mobile app for Flickr users to take the hassle out of getting photos from your cameraphone onto to your Flickr account. It’s beta stuff at present, and we’d like some people to test it out for us.

If you’re interested, follow this www.shozu.com to find out if your phone is supported and register for the beta trial.

From the website:

ShoZu is a mobile application for Flickr users. Reasons to use ShoZu include

• Uploading photos to Flickr is easier, more robust, and cheaper, than e-mail
• Data transfer does not interrupt your normal use of the phone
• You can add descriptions and tags from the phone at any time (before or after upload).

ShoZu currently supports Symbian OS handsets*, but we’re also working on other platforms, including Java.

It sounds pretty cool. If only I had a camera phone.
