Potentially bad news for smaller image sharing apps such as Twitpic and Posterous as Flickr (finally) adds a new feature which allows users to tweet their photos. Also this week Twitter modifies their user interface to give us more control of who we follow and who follows us.

To share photos from your Flickr account directly to Twitter you must first authorize the two services to communicate with each other through your account; standard for many Twitter applications. Now you can easily send shortened http://flic.kr URLs from the “Blog This” button on your photo pages or mobile device. Enable “Upload by Email” in your Flickr settings before you attempt mobile photo sharing.
 
Twitter tweaks it’s user interface slightly this week by enhancing features on the Following and Followers pages. Twitter now gives us two new ways to view our tweeps. A compact view gives us a clean overview of users listed on our follow pages, while the expanded view shows us a user’s last tweet along with their location. A new drop-down menu delivers quick access to @ mentions, direct messages, unfollow and block.
