Alternatives to Instagrams selling images for revenue

In continuation to my blog reporting alternatives to Instagram,  the image editing business is getting hotter with Flickr announcing a update for iOS

Its actually not a update it is a complete built from scratch upgrade with a new name Flikr 2.0 for iOS.  This Yahoo owned photo sharing website seems to have taken a cue from Instagrams loss of face following now famous statement of selling users images for revenue and then retracting it.  But the damage seems to have spurred Flickr into launching the update.

The new update has following good news for photo sharing users

Better visibility of photo upload status

It’s now easier than ever to share your Flickr photos on Facebook

Get instant notifications when your Facebook friends join Flickr

Easily find your Twitter contacts on Flickr

New notifications when someone comments on a photo you’ve also commented on

Fixed issues with Google sign-in

Following Instagram stopping its images on tweets at twitter and Selling-images-for-revenue scam, Flickr is now in a very enviable position.

iPad has suprisingly been left out of the update, but hope to see an update soon for that too.

Go get Flickr 2.0 for iOS here.
