Congratulations! Now you can use flicker using google. First it was necessary to have yahoo account to use flicker, but now with yahoo and google’s partnership this problem has been resolved. Now you can open new flicker account with your openID.
Users dont have to create a yahoo account for using flicker. Instead, they can signup to flicker with their google accounts with a single click. However, the existing flicker users have to use their yahoo accounts to sign in. We hope that in future their are more sush partnerships which would further make our life easier.
