I’ve often wondered why Flickr didn’t have Twitter integration (it would seem a natural addition to their sharing features) and this is a great first step. This will replace my use of Twitpic on my mobile phone (a G1). I can’t help but wonder if this might be the beginning of the end of Twitpic – when your usefulness is in only partially-filling a niche yet tackled by the big players, lifespan is often shortened. If Flickr, Picasa, and other photo sharing services add full Twitter integration, I predict that folks will choose the fuller feature set of the big players as opposed to the one-use aspect of Twitpic. We shall see.
