Two of my favorite social neworks are now closer than ever before. Flickr2Twitter was announced today and I couldn’t be more excited.

While I’ve been a fan of Twitter photo sharing services like TwitPic, I’ve never liked the quality of most phone cameras. Being able to share these fuzzy, lower resultion images with the world wasn’t that appealing to me. Flickr2Twitter has this function too of course. However, it’s the ability to post photos directly from Flickr to Twitter with the virtual press of a button that I find most appealing.

Setup is quick and painless. Once complete, you simply click the “blog this” button above your photos. You even get the option to edit the content of the tweet. The link uses Flickr’s own URL shortener.

I think this is useful and smart addition to the Flickr experience. I’d love to hear about other people’s experience and opinions of this new feature.
