It’s A Good Week For Facebook: ReadWriteWeb

I love ReadWriteWeb. And Facebook I quite enjoy. I’d be a fool not to.

This week, one of my favourite techy resources is sharing all that is Facebook: the good, the bad and the ugly in what they are calling Facebook Week. So if you’ve been hard-pressed to just keep up with this mainstream social network and its’ rapid evolution to stardom, follow along with MacManus and his team of writers this week you will very likely get all you need to know (and more) on what is perhaps the most fascinating web company of 2007.

zuPort: Flickr – New Facebook App Kicks Butt

There are several Flickr apps for Facebook that are currently out there. I’ve tried them all and this one wins in my books. zuPort: Flickr was just released last Friday and will continue to be worked on and improved to meet the suggestions and requests from the users, so check it out and let the team who built this bombshell know what you think about it. I spent some of my day Friday testing the beta before launch and the developers working on it, ironing out the kinks and making it the best Flickr Facebook application are genius.

Here are a few reasons why I dig it:

    On the profile page:

  • Displays the most recently uploaded Flickr photos within seconds of them
    being uploaded to Flickr
  • If you hover over the photo, it displays the title
  • You can click to see all photos or all sets
    On the photo pages:

  • Allows you to look at all your public Flickr photos IN FACEBOOK or Flickr
  • Shows most recent photos and displays all of your flickr sets
  • You can click photos to enlarge them and see their title, description, tags and comments from flickr
  • Ease to navigate to the next photo
    Features being added soon:

  • Photos in the news feed
  • If you make comments in Facebook, they will appear on Flickr

Now go back to your crack, login and add the zuPort: Flickr!
