Tweet your Flickr photo via Flickr2Twitter

Tweet Tweet flickr is here to tweet your Flickr photo stream…can it be a twitpic killer? I know most of my friends have Flickr account and they all put their photos on Flickr.

This Flickr2Twitter allows you to upload your photo directly to Flickr and Twitter at the same time, or tweet a photo already on Flickr, using a special short Flic.kr URL. Here is how you can set it up:

  1. Go to your Flickr, then click on “You” menu option and then choose “Your Account”
  2. Click on “Extending Flickr” tab and the click “Edit”
  3. I just realized if I copied and pasted the direct URL, it works (obviously you have to sign in)
  4. Next you have to authorize your twitter account
  5. Once authorized, now you can tweet your photo from email (so you can do it from your mobile) or directly from your photostream by clicking on “Blog this” from a specific photo.

Now here is all screen shot tour of how to set it up:
