Handy Lightroom to Flickr plugin

If you use Lightroom and Flickr you ought to check out this plugin:

It is a very handy tool that allows you to upload from Lightroom directly to Flickr via the Lightroom “Export” command. Not only can it get the images to Flickr, it can add them to sets, export the EXIF data into Flickr fields, and can set browsing permissions.

Other than an occasional bug that is the fault of the Lightroom Export SDK, the plugin works flawlessly and is very simple to use. It is also updated regularly.

If you use other services like Picasa Web, SmugMug, etc. the developer has created other plugins for them as well. See the links on this page:

Definitely worth checking out. The author was an official “Beta-Tester” for the Lightroom SDK, so he seems to know what he’s doing.
