Flickr is a photo sharing website that allows users to upload photos, tag them, organize them into groups and sets, discuss photos in comment threads, and search for other photos. It facilitates more interaction than earlier photo sharing sites by allowing users to discuss photos, search for photos based on tags, and share photos through groups and contacts. Users can get Flickr accounts through Yahoo or by directly signing up, and then learn to use Flickr through online tutorials. Flickr makes it easy to upload, organize, discuss and find photos.
