Flikr, Windows Live Photo Gallery is goodness

As Larry men­tions in his post, the latest beta of Win­dows Live Photo Gal­lery is out.

After installing it, the first fea­ture I tried out is the new “upload to Flickr”. I am a Flickr Pro user: the abil­ity to see and com­ment on my friend’s pho­tos is like attend­ing slide-show even­ings from the com­fort of your own computer.

The internal buzz in the leadup to announce even got Jeff Sandquist hyped! And Long Zheng, an excel­lent pho­to­grapher also loves it.

Win­dows Vista added sup­port for tag­ging pho­tos as another mech­an­ism for organ­ising your digital memor­ies. Win­dows Live Photo Gal­lery reflects these tags when upload into Flickr. Now as a Flickr user, this was a wow! moment.

Watch and listen to my (first) screen­cast.
