Yahoo Mobile-Meister Russell Beattie himself revealed some stuff that Ludicorp (now a part of Yahoo) was doing to get Flickr working with Lifeblog.
Hugo and Timo, here on the Lifeblog team, also pointed out to me that you can now set up Flickr to automatically post your Lifeblog posted photos to any blog Flickr normally can automatically post to.
That’s cool.
One thing to keep in mind, they are still working out the kinks (I totally subscribe to the ‘just get it out there’ mentality) and Flickr will only accept images and some text (don’t know which, since I have yet to try it myself). Flickr does not at the time accept any videos or MMSs (don’t know about the other object types). Timo and Hugo have been playing with it, posting from the PC and mobile.
Give it a try!

Hmm…
I have been posting to Flickr from LifeBlog (both on the phone and the PC) since Dec, but through the “Send” function via email to Flickr and my blog.
On the phone’s LifeBlog, I have been unable to figure out how to get it to configure more than one atom client at a time. If I LifeBlog post to TypePad, it can post to as many blogs as I am signed up for, But…If I want to configure LifeBlog’s weblog (Atom) settings to anything other than TypePad, such as Flickr or Martin’s MT hack, I have to delete my TypePad settings to put the new one in.
Charlie, my question for you and the LifeBlog team, is: As LifeBlog is configured to allow for more Atom clients than just TypePad, will we be able to have multiple weblog settings on the phone that we can choose between depending on the photo or video that we want to post? One for MT, one for Flickr, one for TypePad, etc? This would be lovely.
jen,
you can have more than one blog account on your pc.
on the phone, we only added the multiple blog settings in the version starting with the nokia 6630 (it’s a platform thing again). that means that the lifeblog mobile for the nokia 6630 and nokia 668x will allow you to post to multiple accounts on different systems.
sorry.
tchau,
charlie
This may not be the place to post this question, but do you perhaps know if it’s possible to use Lifeblog to send images to flickr only, without having a blog? It only seems possible to post to flickr AND to a blog, which I don’t have.
Apologies if this is off-topic, I’ve looked everywhere =)
