Flickr added to some Nokia phones
Over on the Flickr News page, the team has announced the availability of Flickr on a trio of Nokia models.If you're lucky enough to have one of these phones:
N72 \ N73 \ N93 \ (with more coming soon)
You'll be able to logon to the service (using a newly assigned ID \ password that's specific to the phone) and enjoy simple upload \ viewing of all your photos. For the rest of us, we'll have to make do with the 'upload by email' feature.
Unfortunately for us, the Flickr team still hasn't fixed the Mobile Flickr site if you use your Y! ID to access the service, so you can't view any of the photos from your phone...
So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place.

Actually, I discovered two workarounds for this flickr bug. First, if you simply add a "/mob/" between flickr.com and your flickr name, then you'll be able to see the mobile version of your flickr photostream. Also, if you use Wampad, you can look up your flickr name (or anyone else's) and go to your flickr photostream. Once you're there, it's as easy as bookmarking it so that you'll have it accessible for later. We'll call this the Pettie Workaround.

Thanks for the info, I just tried it with the N72 I just got froms www.sugarpipe.com and it works perfectly! I'm on T-Mobile so the upload speeds are a little slow, but hopefully T-Mo will get their act together soon with some sort of 3g network and then I'll really be able to take advantage of this :)

Thanks for the info! I just tried this on the N72 I got this week from www.sugarpipe.com and it works perfectly. Setup was a snap on Flickr's website and the only downside is that since I'm on tmobile the data speeds are a little slow with the higher res pics that this phone takes.
