automatic upload to flickr & other image sites (FREE)

Posted this in the wrong place yesterday....

I've been running this a couple days, and in a lot of ways I think it's better then mms (especially if you're one of those "my life is an open book on the internet" types...

a) get yourself a free or pay flickr account*
b) sign up for and install shozu http://www.shozu.com/portal/
c) fork around with the settings for an hour or so until you beat it into working (no kidding, this step sucks)
d) Set shozu to automatically upload new pictures/vids to flickr
e) take photos/vids as normal.
f) notice that, within minutes, they appear on your flickr page, without any further effort on your part ** I think it can geotag them if you have integrated gps - which I will someday when sprint releases their gps rom **
g) be happy and totally web 2.0

Anywhoo, take a look. It's actually pretty nice. Might make me pop for the $28/yr for an unlimited flickr account.

* it works with a lot of different image and blog sites, but I've only been able to get it to autoload to flickr. Probably a problem with me, not it

If you get auto upload to work with another service, do tell how

It picks up all the images on your device for you, or it did for me - I have my camera saving onto the card and it works fine.

Playing around with it today, the photos are cached for a bit @ shozu, and you can get an rss feed of your recent photos there, so you could even grab your own photos off of shozu if you wanted. Pretty nifty service for free.
