Yahoo overhauls Flickr

Munich - Yahoo has introduced an overhaul of its photo-sharing site, Flickr, including a design that doesn't just work with browsers, but also client programmes on desktops and apps.

There are also new functions like the possibility in Camera Roll to look at photos in reverse chronological order of the date they were taken.

Windows and Mac users also get the option to use a new tool, Desktop Uploadrs, which allows specific photos to be found in a search and then saved in a private Flickr album in a cloud backup.
