Testing a Flickr Blog Function

I am using this post as a test of the Flickr blog function. I am hoping it will speed up writing posts that use a simple, standard, photo and text layout.

It seems to work quite well, and really simple to set up. You simply configure Flickr to see your blog/s, select a layout for your post (they provide a nice little app for choosing and testing your layouts), then go to the photo that you want to embed in your post. Select the ‘Blog This’ option, (if you set up more than one blog you get a drop-down menu where you can select which blog you wish to post to), and you are presented with a simple interface for creating your post. When you are done, you simply click the Post entry button and your post is posted to your blog using the format that you preselected.
